Borders & Sony eBook Gift Cards?

Hi

Being a UK Sony reader user, I had hoped to buy a few dollars worth of gift cards at Borders at Washington Dulles airport before I cam home from a trip today.

Unfortunatley, though the Borders store in the terminal had cards in stock, the very polite sales assistants had no instructions on how to activate the cards! It was an early flight, so they could only call colleagues at other airport stores - but they couldn't help either!

The cards clearly state that they won't work "unless activated at the register" - so sadly I left the cards behind, and Borders didn't make a sale....

Has anyone else had this experience?

(I'll just have to continue with Books on Board and wait for Waterstones to open...)

Otherwise I'm a happy Sony user..... pleased I can now buy secure pdfs, but would prefer if the publishers whould format for the Sony!
