I own 2 Bookeen Cybook Gen3s, 1 Netronix EB-100, 1 Sony PRS-500, 1 HP iPaq 110 (pda) and 1 Dell Axim x51v (pda) - along with a desktop PC, a netbook and a laptop. I tend to use the Cybooks most of the time, swapping out as I let one recharge, but as I use an SD card to hold my ebooks, I've been known to shift to any of the other devices 'on the fly'. By my count, that's NINE devices I use to read my ebooks - and Mobipocket only allows FOUR to be registered. Oops! Guess I'll continue to strip out the DRM. And the situation is only going to get more complex when I add a BeBook or Kindle 2 to the mix, or if I get a TXTR ebook reader when they become available.
