I never said that the two readers could use the same update. What I was saying is that they can have similar _abilities_. There is no technical reason why the PRS-500 cannot support Epub and reflowable PDF.
What we are discussing here (as I understand it) is Sony's business decision not to develop upgrades for the PRS-500. This was not a technical decision. Your technical arguments are irrelevant to this discussion.

Okay, I agree with this. Sony has never provided a shining example of consumer friendliness, as moz has explained so well in the previous post, and it is definitely a turn off when trying to decide who to take your business to.
I just don't think that leaving Sony is the best option because they are currently one of the front runners in the e paper device market and I would stick around to see what they do with their technology in the future rather than give up on what might be a great product line.
And Nate the Great, I am sorry that I lost my temper; Are we still friends?
