And, since it appears that you are required to have a Sony eReader Store account to sign up for Overdrive (they ask you to enter in a Sony provided account code as part of the sign-up process) is that code still somehow available on a newly purchased Sony eReader? What attracts me to the T2 (besides the build and (current) good price) is the fact that I wouldn't have to use ADE for ePubs. (I use Linux so I can't use ADE -- I've run into that issue with my Nook.) My local library seems to have more Kindle books than ePub, but it might be nice to be able to handle both without a computer in the middle.

Assuming because you have access to BC libraries you can possibly buy in BC or have someone buy for you, a T3 is $79 new, not refurbished, and much nicer IMO than the T1 or T2.
You can create an Adobe account right on the reader (T1,T2,T3). I just did it to see. Easier to do it on the computer and you could do it on a friends or library computer I am sure.
