Reader recognition
I have just upgraded to version 6.11 and when I run this it recognises my Sony as a Pocket Edition instead of the PRS-505 which was recognised by the previous version. Are the books the same? Is the Pocket edition the new name for the PRS-505? Will I be able to read any new books I install through Calibre?

The description is all that changed. The 300, 600, 700, and 505 all use the same driver. They just have different device ids. The 300 and 505 description was changed to pocket edition and the 600, 700 to touch edition.

Actually the 300/500 and 600/700 use the same device ids right down to the revision number, which was why I decided to combine them into a single Pocket and Touch Edition driver, respectively.
