I would have thought so too, but I tried it and I can't. When I have my PRS-650 connected to my computer and i open ADE, ADE does not even recognize that I have an ebook device connected (yet Calibre does).

When I click on the option to authorize (in ADE Library view), it shows an option to authorize my computer (and it tells me that my computer is already authorized), but no option to authorize a device.

I find this odd because I can open all DRM ebooks with ADE -- even those I've purchased from the Sony Store (including periodicals) -- and I can read them from within ADE.

JSWolf, I see that you have a PRS-650 as well. Can you tell me if your experience is the same as mine? Does ADE recognize that you have a device connected?
