Hi. I'm new to this forum and appreciate all of the useful info on this site. I live in Canada and am on the verge of buying a Sony PRS-505. This thread has useful info relating to the PRS-500 purchases outside US and related software, however could use clarification from anyone who has recently purchased the PRS-505 in Canada on the items below:

1. There is currently a $100 credit on a PRS-505 purchase for downloading classics from Sony Iconnect. Would appreciate input from anyone who has successfully claimed the credit outside of US. I understand that one must register as a US user. Any other words of wisdom would be appreciated.

2. Vendor of choice appears to be bhphotovideo.com. Any other reputable vendor names used recently that ship internationally aside from EBay?

3. Can one use Iconnect as a "US" user with a Cdn credit card, or do you need to arrange gift certificates on Iconnect through a US contact?

Thanks so much!
