Why upgrade to EBL Ver3?
When I got my PRS-300 I installed the Ver3 software on an XP netbook, all was well. Then I installed it onto a Vista laptop and couldn't get it to work for love or money. I tried all the tricks from users on this forum, compatibility mode, etc... Not having had a Sony, I upgraded from a Bebook, I followed the threads and changed my Vista laptop to Ver2.5, problem solved.

So I guess my question is, why upgrade to Ver3? This forum is riddled with posts about the problems Windows 7, Vista and Snow Leopard users are having. I understand that people want the latest thing, but after using both versions I don't really see any "upgrade" to Ver3. A little fancier interface, maybe. Am I missing something? I read members saying things like "I spent hours on the phone with tech support" I would return my device before I spent hours on the phone.

I'm going to stick with Ver2.5 until I read here that Sony has come out with Ver3.5 or a patch, which will probably be right after hell freezes over.

Regards, Daryl
