DrMoze raises an interesting question. It's been pretty easy to find all the places that have Sony native LRF support. It's been disappointing that more sites didn't support our Reader, but it's been pretty easy to list those that do.

AdobeDE on the 505 poses a different sort of problem. There are lots of sites with AdobeDE content that's directly loadable. The barrier to new sites is apparently pretty low. 505 owners, do you browse the offerings of an eBook site or do you Google for a site that has the book you're looking for?

For us 500 owners, it's a question of looking through a site's offerings to find books. I'm usually settling for an HTML book, which BookDesigner works wonders on. Googleing for a title finds a bunch of sites that have useless DRM eBooks that we can't read.

This sort of a flat list supports going from site to site to see what they have. In the new AdobeDE world, we might want a list organized by type of book, listing the sites that carry them. Perhaps we need a new thread about AdobeDE sources. If you figure out how to organize it, we can prevail on the folks in charge to make it sticky.
