Deauthorizing a PRS-505

I have the most current versions of Adobe Digital Editions and the Sony Reader for PC software. I've attempted to deauthorize my PRS-505 so I can put it up for sale, but I'm not quite sure I've been successful.

I hooked up the 505 to my computer, launched ADE, selected the device in the menu on the left, hit CTRL+SHIFT+E, and confirmed that I want to deauthorize it. If I leave the 505 hooked up and run either ADE or Reader for PC, both programs detect the device and ask if I would like to authorize it, which I then cancel.

So far it sounds like I was successful.

But I'm a little confused because if I launch Reader for PC and check under my account where it allows me to rename my various devices, it still lists the 505. I would expect to no longer see it there if my deauthorization was truly successful.

So what do people think? Am I good to go?
