We do not have confirmation that it is for business customers only. It is in a section of Sony's site devoted to business. However, nothing indicates that they will only sell it to businesses. When contacted, they made no mention that it was business only. They just said that they only wanted to sell it in the Japanese market.

I didn't say it is confirmed but it is highly likely, like the assumptions I have made before and that were confirmed (concerning language and region).
And that it is listed in the business section and that joblack wrote the "Sony Business Solutions Corporation" section of sony japan doesnt indicate anything?!
Also the Sony DPT-S1 can
only be found in the
Sony Section for Business customers
Not only is it in the business section but also it seems that they want to sell it as a
bundle with corporate software as it can be seen on the sony page.
Importing is okay for me but learning japanese for the basic function like zooming (which we dont even know if its supported) is asking for too much.
Maybe you are willing to pay such a premium price for a PDF-Only Reader and accept the burdens but it is very unlikely we will see alot of people with this product around.
They aren't even selling it international to anyone, and probably not even to consumers in japan but rather business customers...
