Right now it is so tedious to navigate through Sony's site on the reader software that it generally discourages me from browsing for books. If they would just allow you to login from a regular browser and make the wish list and shopping cart features work there then I could look at multiple books in multiple tabs/windows add them to the cart, then transfer to Sony's software and make my purchases. As it is it is a fairly unpleasant shopping experience where you are confined to consider one book at a time with forward/back buttons, and a wishlist button that is only available on the product detail page. As a result, I don't buy many books from Sony.
I was hoping that the linkup with the Borders site would mean we could shop for books on the Borders site instead of going through the reader software, but it looks like Borders and Sony just have an agreement for Borders to promote the reader and distribute the flawed Sony software without actually offering books for Sony Reader customers.
