Also, I forgot to ask the seller if she de-registered it before it was shipped. I recall reading that there is a way to de-register and re-register it in my name but I can't find the thread. Do you know how to do it?
I believe you want to have firware 1.1.00.18040 or later. If you do, then you have ePub support.

What you do is try to authorize the 505 under your account at the eBookstore and if it works, then you are good to go. Otherwise, give Sony a call at ...
