Could you clarify? I'm not understanding the reason for you having trouble adding ebooks except with a 4-year old laptop.
- Is it somehow tied to the age of the laptop (Vista, I presume)?
- Is it DRM? Correctable, I believe (haven't removed Sony's DRM personally).
- Is it the Sony Software? Correctable (Calibre, drag-and-drop).
- Or are you saying simply that you only have one PC and don't particularly like being tied to a PC?

I'd hate to see you getting rid of that nice portable 350 if the problem is correctable. It's so nice to put in your pocket.
