Hi all. Some advice please for a UK resident. We do not have access to the Sony Ebook store here - we are directed towards our UK retailer by the Sony ereader programme. If however I download the Sony ereader software and say I am in the USA while using a different computer I can ( in theory of course....) gain access.
It may not be possible for me to spend real money there with billing usually needing a US credit card, but the occasional freebie from Sony can be downloaded and viewed on this 2nd computer.
If I were to plug in my 505 which is registered to the PC linked to my UK account what will happen? Can that ereader be authorized to more than one computer at a time? I don't want to try it in case it all goes horribly wrong but I supect someone out there knows be answer.
Thanks for the help
