I have a Mac and used parallels to "register" the Sony with adobe. From then on I don't need windows as I can use Calibre for moving books to and from my various ebooks and as a library and news source.

I've used BoB almost exclusively since I got my various readers and have only had a few problems with regional restrictions. However regionalisation is a right pain in the rear.

In the UK Borders, WHsmith and Waterstones have pretty poor websites for buying ebooks. Of those 3, WHSmith is the best, but all have an interesting attitiude to pricing.

I haven't tried using my paypal account to "solve" regional issues with BoB, but I might give it a try next time.
