And if so did it all work ok? I'm still new to this ebook world and slowly getting my head round what formats/stores will work with my UK PRS-505.

Thanks all

It will work, but you need to install the US version of the Sony eBook Library software, which connects to the Sony eBook Store. The UK-supplied version of the software connects to Waterstones.

Frankly there's very little point. You're better off just buying Microsoft Reader (LIT) books from somewhere like BooksOnBoard or Fictionwise and converting them to Sony format, something which is extremely easy to do.
