Has anyone tried Codeweavers with the Sony Connect software? It isn't listed as working software in their database.
Then again, I've gotten used to using Kovid's excellent libprs500 package and also accessing the Sony Reader's file system via the Terminal/command line via the Docudesk FuseFS system extensions.
It's nice to have all the options for accessing my eBooks AND a perkier computer to do work on. I still think there will be many situations where the Sony Reader will be better for reading eBooks on than even the very bright LED backlit screen that the Air has. Anyone know if there is an OS X port of FBReader?

I have been looking for eBook readers for OSX but I have yet to find any, open source or not. It is dismal!
