Covers.....

I got a new PRS-600 on Tuesday. The 505 cover does fit the 600 - but the one with the light does not - the screen may be the same size but the cut out in the new form factor is lower so the light wedge doesn't match up. Drat - since this one has no internal light and has a more reflective surface and external light (and more glare) is inevitable for reading in low light conditions. And I certainly don't want to spend another $70 if they reboot the design of the lighted cover for the 600.

On another note, I reverted back to vers. 2.5 of the Ebook Library software. After numerous calls to level 2 support over the course of the week I could not get vers 3.0 to work on my Vista machine (it would spontaneously freeze the app or close it whenever I tried to copy books to the Reader - after doing the whole uninstallation ballet that Sony walks you through - multiple times). It works fine on XP so I know it is not the Reader - and everything works as expected with vers 2.5.

Sony - please don't release S/W until you know it works.....
