I also took another look at the [latest] release of the Sony Library and discovered that it has improved since I last used it to do anything more than download-and-upload books. I need to correct my criticism of the software in my earlier post. I think the current release is very good. The Sony Library now has a button that puts it in "Full Screen" mode, which presents two pages of the book with a choice of font sizes. The book is easy to read, especially on a laptop, and it now supports note taking (although I couldn't find how you print the notes). It's really a pretty good rendering tool for reading on the PC.

Thanks for finding that out! I confess, it makes me more than a little sad that I hardly shop at Borders anymore since I got my Reader, and since they are in trouble and also were the ones who sold me my Reader I hoped that they would reap some rewards from that.
I do like the full screen mode as well. But I have the earlier version and it had it. Maybe it wasn't as noticable.
