NO, NO, NO. Buying a Daily Reader won't give you instant access to all these libraries. It will just provide a wireless interface to your LOCAL library for borrowing. The 505, 600, 700, 300 can already borrow books from your LOCAL library site. You just have to access libraries thru your web browser and load books using ADE. Looks like the new Sony software will simplify the e-library access as part of the Library software.
In any case, you STILL NEED A LOCAL LIBRARY CARD to borrow e-books from ANY Sony Reader. These libraries have limited copies of e-books available, and are funded by LOCAL taxes. Nobody is getting nationwide free access to a ton of online libraries. Just easier access to your LOCAL libraries.
