3) Sony PRS-505
4) Work computer (iffy, but depends on job)
5) Spouse's Sony PRS-700

And then, hey... you decide to upgrade the laptop, or your computer crashes & needs a Windows reinstall--and you get to hope the unregister/reregister software all works correctly.

We have run into this with my husband's Adobe DRM formatted textbooks for school. He's a computer tech. He changes hardware all the time (which to Adobe means he's got to register a different machine to his account). He blew through the six activations in about six months. Calling Adobe and explaining the situation to get them to reset the activations on the textbook turned out to be an exercise in frustration. Hours long hold times, people who don't speak English as a first language, and one person flat out called him a liar. There IS no unregister/re register with these, either.
