Still loving my 700 ... have bought lots of books on the Sony site, but they don't have everything I want - and many are only available in the U.S.

I tried buying a book from Books on Board but struggled with the format question - I ended up buying using Adobe ePub format, but I can't read it on the device (although I can on my laptop). When I try to read it on the device, it says "Protected Page".

The file is clearly ok since I can read it on the laptop - did I choose the wrong format when I bought it? What format should I have chosen? Am I doing anything else stupic?
