I would much rather say to hell with it and take the loss at this point before I get hundreds or thousands of dollars invested in a library. At least Sony will probably be around 10 years from now and they have a better selection of books.
I have had the reader for 4 weeks and already my books are obsolete. Well not really, except that the original hardware vendor (Astak) will no longer provide support for that format. I have a bad feeling about this whole deal.

You can always buy a new reader and add the pid to your list of available readers. Then you redownload your eBooks with the new PID. Most dealers give you 4 but if not you can cancel the old one and transfer to the new one. this is not a manufactures issue but a dealer one. the ebook dealer you buy your ebooks from controls the licensing of the ebook. For Sony this is only Sony but for Mobipocket there are many dealers. There is no reason to worry about your next unit yet.
