Flashing Sony's official GERMAN Firmware on PRS-505?
Hi everyone.

Now that the PRS-505 has been released in Germany, does does anyone know where we could get Sony's official German firmware? There does not seem anything to be available on Sony's support site.

And then of course, has anyone already tried flashing a non-german device?

They probably won't release the firmware on the German site. The Reader should come with the latest firmware already loaded.

I believe the U.K. release was the same. No firmware was released on Sony's site.

What is different in the German firmware that you would want it on your 505?

The language is different, of course. And then, it`ll be the newest version, won`t it?

Personally, I don`t really care whether the interface is in German or English. But not everyone in my family is fluent in English...
