1. I wouldn't worry as much about that. Don't keep it in a backpack is my best advice, nor in your back pocket. I've dropped mine twice now, with no problems to the screen. I even dropped a lighter on the screen and it only nicked it. Just be cautious.

2. Yeah, that's a big problem for those outside of the US. Sign are pointing to better times (I hear Borders is going to start an ebookstore over there). I think that there are some other stores with more options for you UK folks. Hopefully someone will chime in.

3. This is the crappy thing about DRM. However, you can share between devices if they are on the same account, or non DRMed books.

Most of these issues are common across the board with e-ink devices, not just Sony. Heh, if that makes you feel better.
