Well 1st off let me hi to everyone here. I recent new owner of a PRS-600. I'm already upset with Sony. Just found out thru Sony online support that I can't buy books thru there software cause I'm overseas (Military).
So now I on the search for another place to buy books with good prices. I have used the 600 a little bit with a PDF book that I had. So far I like it but need more time & books to really know. This is my first e-reader
Below is the transcript from Sony online support
Curtis_ > Are you currently in the U.S.?
Jay > no
Curtis_ > May I know from where you are trying to access the eBook Store?
Jay > Iraq
Curtis_ > Jay, you can purchase an eBook from the eBook Store only when you are either in the U.S. or in Canada using a U.S. or Canada Credit Card.
Jay > Well that sucks, I using a U.S. credit card with a U.S. Address but I guess that dosn't matter
Jay > sony just lost my business, I won't be back in the US for a least 6 months
Curtis_ > The eBook Store uses Geo-IP technology to identify where you are located based on the location of your internet service provider (ISP). This is done to ensure that eBooks are only sold to customers who reside in countries where the titles have been cleared for sale.
Curtis_ > Jay, it is required to be in the U.S. to purchase eBooks from the eBook Store using a U.S Credit Card.
