A question to the wise , does an upgrade from 6.1 to 6.2 keep the same PID ?

The PID is derived from the machine's hardware - probably based on the MAC address or something like that.

I remember reading somewhere where some upgrade of mobireader did alter the PID - I think , just can't remember where I came across the reference ...

edit : found it . fictionwise , but that was for an upgrade from 4.4 to 4.5 - obviously old news - sorry .

Look at the name: the MOBIPOCKET desktop reader. It's for devices which support the MOBIPOCKET book format. The Sony Reader does not support this format.

I've been trying to access the MRI all evening, with no luck (page just keeps loading, nothing happens). Any other place I can download the MRI file from?

Edit: Never mind. Wouldn't you know, the minute I finish typing, the download frees up!
