Just starting to figure things out. It appears I must use the Sony E-library software to buy/download books from Sony or Google but I have just gotten used to using Calibre and am preferring it to manage my library. Anyone else doing that sort of thing or do you all just use the Sony software?

Also I get an pop-up error when I connect my Reader -- apparently a USB driver issue on the Drive/drives (maybe the memory cards?). Everything appears to work but the error is obnoxious every time I plug it in. Any tips or direction wrt that problem?

Thanks!
