How am I going to know what Sony will say to avoid facing up? They already send form answers to specific email's. Anything third party is considered "modification" these days. Spend an afternoon reading customer complaints about Sony not honoring basic warranty concerns. Not to be mentioned, my 2 Sony electronic units that died 1 day after the 1 year warranty.
Legally speaking, anything not bundled with Sony's giving is considered THIRD PARTY, unless from Sony (covers, accessories).

The Web2Book software is severely under documented, and runs miserably slow. It runs so slow, without a progress icon, no less, it's as though it hanged.

Running the "test" option in the bottom, 7 out of the 8 feeds I subscribed to from the user contributed option, failed. These were the major, top news organizations. Reuters, WSJ, NYtimes, Time. Is this program supported enough to justify using it?

God, this is ridiculous. Went through the .Net 2.0 update, and 7 feeds failed.
"Added 0 articles, added 0 articles, added 0 articles..."

Oh well, probably will work after manually adding feeds later in the week.
