FYI - Anyone reading this thread who also uses Calibre (v7.40 onward), you can get it to maintain your thumbnails automatically when you connect the Sony to Calibre, so they match the covers you keep in Calibre (rather than what may be in the book). It should work for EPUB, TXT, RTF and PDF - DRM'd or non-DRM.

If you're interested you need to configure Calibre for your Sony via the relevant checkboxes in Preferences - Plugins - Device Interface - Sony - Customize.

Note that to work, metadata management must be set to automatic in Preferences - Sending books to device. You probably don't want to do this if you use ADE or Sony Reader to manage Collections manually as Calibre will also maintain your Collections automatically as well.
