Finding verses seems pretty good now versus the NIV I bought from Sony 2 years ago. Sony has the new Zondervan now as well.
I may just buy that after my PRS 900 arrives.
Zondervan has it for $ 2.00 less than Sony in ePub version. I wonder if that download would work with my Sony PC software and the PRS 900?
The Franklin BIB 475 is best for this purpose but its battery runs out in 2 hours. The Sony PRS 900 battery is supposed to last for 2 weeks.

Unless we are looking at different NIV bibles, the sample I downloaded from BN was NOT in epub format but in .pdb format.
This is the link I was looking at and downloaded the sample for to see if you are experiencing something different from me:

I want to re-iterate that Zondervan's NIV bible will be highly functional on any touchscreen ebook reader device because you will just be able to touch the hyperlinks and go directly to your verse.
On a PRS-300 and PRS-505 and likely any non-touchscreen device, it will be, for all practical purposes, unusable. On a PRS-600/900, you will be fine.
