I've been interested in an e-ink type gadget for awhile now. Recently, the Sony Reader 505 caught my eye. The reviews I've read about the device seem very favorable. Being a Mac user (Macbook) myself, will I run into problems if I purchased the 505? From what I've read, the syncing software only works with windows based pc's. Also, I know certain book formats can be converted to the Sony format and then put on the reader, however will these file converters work on a mac? Much appreciated for your assistance.
