I was able to borrow a digital ebook, it was in Adobe Digital Edition. All I had to do was download adobe digital edition and authorize the computer and sony reader. Once done, you can transfer the ebook physically using the sony reader. It lasts for 21 days, after that I believe you can renew it.
It's interesting how they are only allowing certain number of copies to be checked-out when we know it's technically possible to have unlimited copies as it's 'digital'. I guess it has to do with the restrictions of the copyright, does that make sense?

1. Adobe reflow: Will it make some of the technical books I have in PDF format readable? Lots of text with diagrams and such?
2. Adobe digital editions: You can "rent" books from libraries?
Where can I find books? Once my period expires can I rent that same
book again later or will it never give me access again.
Will it work with these:

Anything else I should know?
