Be careful buying imported Sony readers. I got this info from Sony recently:-

"Hello,

I can confirm that the US and Canada have a version of the 700. However I must advise that when you purchase the reader you can only access the online book store in the country of origin. So if you buy from the US you would only be able to access the book store while in the US.

If you would like to check for the reader in a specific country, you may go to sony.net for the web site of the country.

Thank you for contacting Sony Style!

Makes it less useful in Dubai perhaps?

If you do get one doesn't calibre convert all those formats to LRF?
