I chose "other". I've had my Sony reader since August last year. The first time I installed the Sony software was when they announced the partnership with Google books because I wanted to get some of those in ePub format.

I cannot register my reader, though. It shows up in the Sony system as already registered to someone else. I contacted the person who sold it to me and he says he cannot see any option to unregister it without it being connected to his computer. And, so far, I haven't found the right way to contact Sony to ask them to force the deregistration so I can register it. I have not bought any books from the Sony store, since I am totally unwilling to read on the PC.
