Here it is folks: http://labs.docudesk.com/

Downloaded, installed, tried... Sweeeeet!

Xenophon

P.S. After I've played around with it a bit, I'll have lots and lots of questions. Look great at first blush, though.

Very very very cool! This thing rocks. Works perfect and I was FINALLY able to delete the book samples that came with the reader. The drag-and-drop works perfectly too.

This is awesome Scotty. You rock!

Xenophon · 04-27-2007, 04:12 PM

Now for lots and lots of questions (from the 'give them an inch and they want a mile' department):

Is there a way to traverse the folder structure on the PRS500? I have a bunch of sub-directories, but was unable to open them.
Any support for viewing or editing metadata?
What about collections? It'd be beyond cool to be able to create, move and re-order books inside collections via your tool.
...and what about Naomi?

When it comes to adding and removing files from the top level of the card and the internal memory, everything works really really well.

I tried moving a folder, however, and got told "File already exists on Reader" and asked whether I wanted to over-write. Hmmmm...

Why didn't you just delete them with the Connect software?

I don't have a Mac, but I would still love to see a screenshot or two. Anyone?

Here you go. Enjoy.

Uh folks, I don't work for Docudesk. They wrote the graphical thingy on top of the readerfs.

Keep an eye on their site. If you liked the browser you are likely to like their next Sony Reader product even more...

They're nice folks and cruise MR. If you post to them you may draw them out of lurking to discuss what they are up to.

Prob'ly because he's a Mac user like me, who can't run the *&^%*&^%$^%$# connect software because Sony doesn't realize what a large fraction of their early adopters are Mac users.

(Angry at Sony, not at Diablo)

Sorry, forgot that Connect doesn't run on a Mac.
