I finally took some time away from the new 950 and sat outside enjoying the night air. Then I remembered that I have a netbook with Windows XP. When I came inside I tried connecting to the netbook and it did so without a problem! I wonder if there is some sort of conflict with having the 350 on my desktop. Or perhaps there is another conflict with some device. Well at least I know the 950 is okay and so I will keep it. Now I just need to try to find the conflict and get the 950 where it will connect to my desktop where I keep all my ebooks and apps.
BTW, I'm still miffed at the lousy Sony support, but they will never change I guess!
@Bookworm_Girl, Now that I can connect to a PC I won't worry about the WiFi. I seldom use WiFi on my K3 and I probably won't use it much on the 950 either. Eink screens are not the best devices for internet surfing.
@SeaBookGuy, the attached photo shows why I like the 950 for reading ePubs in landscape with two column mode. It also shows the customized fonts. I know this is not appealing to everyone, but I like the feel of the 950 in landscape and the look of two columns, and being a lefty I find the buttons easy to use for page turning when I hold it that way.
