actually, the new reader for PC works fine with prs-650. I can access the e-store with that OK.

BUt it took me another hour on google to discover that sony have disconnected their servers from the reader that is in the firmware, & didn't bother to put up any helpful info, just left it broken & showing meaningless error messages.
once i downloaded & installed the newer reader it was fine except that it is a persistent so& so - it wiped my sigil associations, kept popping up when not wanted, and also it "helpfully" re-authorised the 650 without asking first.

anyway thread solved, I know now to bundle in a CD of the new reader installer + a note saying use this , not the one in the firmware, if I do ever sell a 650.

thanks for the reset link - I had already tried a "paper clip" reset but not the" hold down some keys & force factory settings" reset,
