Hello. I have a 505 and a Macintosh running Calibre. Is it possible to flash the firmware using Calibre? Or will I have to use the Windows based ereader tools that ship with the product? So, if I have to use Windows and the Sony tools, will I have to format the internal flash before connecting to the Windows based tools? I've read that the Sony stuff and Calibre do not work well together.

Thanks for any advice. -M
