Ron,
Unfortunately I can't give you any satisfying answers. Bill's announcement meant what it said - at some point in the future there will be a Sony Reader released that will be able to display ePub files and PDFs that use Adobe DRM. This hasn't happened yet, although we are working on it. Sony has not publicly released any information (that I'm aware of) on their plans for this device and if there will be any backward support for older devices. When Sony does release that information, I'll post it here.

Depending on when this message came in from Adobe, it sounds like Sony is going to come out with yet another Reader and there's a slight possibility that the PRS-505 will be obsolete? Wow, now that's what I call a SHORT lifespan for the Reader if that's the case. I'll actually be kind of miffed if that happens.
