I know everyone is excited with the T1 but can a PRS650 person help me come to grips with mine please.
I have a new computer and have downloaded Adobe Digital Editions which I have used for the last year. How would I share books with my husband who has a different reader and computer? In the past I didn't have my computer authorised but I want to authorise this one so I get book jackets and stuff. I gather this is something to do with DRM.
I am not sure if there is an update for my for my firmware or, if there is, it would make a difference to my reading. I have looked at the PRS plus video but can't really see what 'plus' is all about. The video has no sound and the picture is too small for me to 'get it'. Advice most welcome.
Is there a way to get the synopsis of the book, the bit you read on the back or inside the front cover. I do get muddled with what I have or haven't read.
So help with how to get the best from the great bit of technology would be fantastic. I love it but don't understand much about it. I do only read on it.
Thank you for reading and [hopefully!] replying.
