Yes, that's exactly it. I've purchased probably my first and last Sony eReader - mostly because of the buggy software. There are competitive eReaders out there, and I'll have to give one of them a shot.
I was surprised to see that the eReader software display doesn't match any kind of protocol (at least not on the Mac, don't know about Windows). You have to continually re-size the window every time you click because it wants to revert to a sub-standard size. And that's a very *minor* but annoying problem compared to the rest of the problems people here have spoken about.
Someone else said it best, in their letter to Sony: goodbye Sony, hello Kindle.
