Yes I noticed that option too. I might change that to a shorter term. Always thought it is nice o keep it for 21 days but many times the books are 'sitting' in my file. Thanks for the tip!

That's true for WMA format items - books checked out as MP3 are returnable early.

I always return books that way because using the T1 WiFi locks to return library books works but sometimes locks up my reader and forces me to reset.

Apparently an update has just been released for T1. Among other things, it fixes some wifi issues, maybe it will fix that.

If you use Adobe "Digital Editions" on your computer you can return them from within there. Just right-click on the cover and choose "return item" (or something like that). I don't use the Sony Reader desktop software so don't know if there is any way to return them from within it.

Actually it's not "right-click" - that will bring up settings I think. Instead, just hover over the book title in the Library View of the ADE, and then you'll get a drop-down menu that includes "return item"
