The problem is that the highlights from the reader book are only partially transferred. For instance if you attempt to transfer one or several paragraphs from the reader to your saved computer file, you will only be able to export a small portion of those highlights or "underlined" text. This is of course true with both the 950 and 650. It is also true even though the full context of your "underlining" is displayed above in the text of the book in the Reader Library. I'm sure this is due to the absurd DRM process and effort to prevent copying of text from your "own" book. Sony and the other device manufacturers could easily correct this though a software download, but I would be very surprised if they did so.
