That's very welcome news! It moves the device into possible purchase territory for me; I'm still curious about how the Connect website will work with Macs (will a Mac user be able to download and read a book from Sony's site?), but knowing I can put a few other formats directly on the eReader does make it more appealing.

Still, I'd rather not have a device that's tied to a single vendor for DRM'd content.
