Did you intend to buy books from Sony's Connect Store?
Because if not, you don't lose much by being on a Mac. The only thing the (non-Macpatible) software does for you is allow connection to Sony's Connect Store. It also may speed up rendering of your own texts if you run them through it, but the Sony Reader can handle several common file types natively without using the Connect Software at all. If you just want to read texts from other (non-Sony) sources, you should be fine. You can xfer them on SD or via the USB connection.
There have also been rumors that Sony *may* be considering portalling the Connect Software to run on MacPuters. I wouldn't recommend basing a decision on that, however.
