so if you can get hold of vouchers (or the free one you get with the reader) you CAN actually buy ebooks to download when NOT in the US.

Strange how they're not formatted perfectly for the device if they're being sold specifically for Sony devices.

What sites will also sell books in different formats that the sony could manage to work with, or be converted to work that way.

The sony doesn't work with encrypted pdfs at the moment either does it?

Its all a bit confusing.. I really like the idea of the concept, it sounds like it could be good enough with this type of reader, i think when the price really drops and content both brought, and converted yourself is readily available at a saving compared to a paper book then it could really explode.
