This is an interesting thread as one that is planning on buying a 505 in a week or two. SO, if I read this right, I will need to auth the device but then I can buy DRM and non-DRM from any source and just copy the files to the device correct?

I am currently using mobipocket on a palm and buy most of my books from baen. The only difference I expect is to have to donwload the lrf instead of the mobi format. But, on the occasion that I buy a bestseller I don't want to be forced to buy through sony.
