I want to read my technical IT books that come on CD in the back of the book to save me lugging the huge things around all the time.

I am interesting in the Sony PRS-505 as it has an eInk screen, but am worried about DRM as I have read people saying the PDF ebooks have lots of DRM and won't work with them.

I was looking at the PDF file in question (from CCNA Study Guide, BTW how is the formating of the page onscreen???) on my Mac and checking the permissions of it, it says I can read, copy text and print from it.

Also the page size is 19cmx24cm, will the sony display that nicely?

Will it be ok on the sony?

Or is there another device that'll be good.

I live in Tokyo, where the sony seems to be unavailable, so i will have to order from the US amazon store.

I am also considering an Ipod touch (and hoping a good pdf browser with bookmarks and other useful features will come along soon.)
