Yes, Sony is getting better with sync across devices and programs. My notes and highlights, plus reading history is saved on my T1 and my 350 (when I sync the 350 with desktop). It's not perfect, and there are some problems/bugs, but it's still better than any other system I have used, and I have tried them all. And if you strip the DRM, you can save them to a rtf file on your computer when you are done reading. If you don't strip the DRM, you can still save to file, but there is a limit to the amount of highlighted words you can save.

Another surprise I had was that when I put the same books on my mini laptop with the Sony Reader program, it remembered the last page I read on every book and asked me if I wanted to go there. Other readers and programs only do that for the books you purchased from them.
