Let's make sure we tell people that this is an update that benefits owners of the T1 and later Sonys only (unless you've heard differently).

No point in PRS owners' downloading an update that might only increase their frustration.

I don't get it. Why would PRS owners not want to update software?

As I understand it, library updates for the T1 have made things more complicated for the PRS owners who've installed them. The T1's an Android device, and what works best with it is not necessarily what works with previous-gen Readers.

Ok, that makes sense. You mean - just stick with the old software (Reader Library) rather than the new one (Reader for PC). Mostly, I agree. The new software has some features that would be nice even for PRS users, if only they worked reliably.

For example, my PRS950 syncs pages (and annotations ?) via wifi with the Reader for PC.

So, if you use the new software, you might as well update it...

But I agree, sticking with the old is safer, for the moment.

I personally have decided to double my level of frustration by having both installed.

I just wish Calibre supported annotations... then I'd be a happy camper and ditch this craptastic software...

I wasn't sure about that - I'll add a tag to the thread if that's the case.
