I have a PRS-500 and would appreciate a firmware update for ePub and PDF reflow support, if hardware is not a limitation.

I often read in public with my reader. Many times, I'm approached by strangers who inquire about the device and I enthusiastically show it off. Its design and build quality, in my opinion, are superb - as I would expect nothing less from Sony. I'm confident more than one have eventually purchased a Sony reader. At the very least, I've exposed them to the Sony reader and e-ink display technology.

Sony's continued support for the PRS-500 would rejuvenate my interest in future Sony readers, knowing that Sony has its readers in mind and not just the bottom line.
