Hi all PRS-505/700 users,

I was just wondering: what is the limitation of using a Sony PRS-505/700 in places outside where it is sold?

Basically if i get a sony reader for myself or buy it for someone and it is used predominantly in places where it is not sold currently, what does the owner lose?

This question is easy to answer for a Kindle for eg., But Sony is little confusing to me.

Support, accessibility of books, sony store, firmware?

TIA for your comments.
