When attempting to transfer a DRM BBeB book to the PRS-600 reader, the following error message is displayed:

"This ebook cannot be transferred to this device. Please Click OK to learn more".

Clicking OK brings you the Sony estore, which displays the following:

"Welcome to Migration

"To help stop the confusion among all the digital book formats, we have converted our eBook store to the industry-standard ePUB format. By adopting an open standard, our eBook store is compatible with multiple devices and our Readers can access multiple sources for content.

"You can download the book that you want to transfer or read with ePUB format. Please click on "Proceed", then find an item you want to download and click on "Download Now".

"Otherwise, you can also download all books purchased previously at once. Please click on "Proceed", then check "Check All" and click on "Download All Checked"."

Clicking "Proceed" brings you to a list of previously purchased BBeB books, which allows you to download their ePub equivalent at no charge. Those all are easily uploaded into the PRS-600.

(Of course, the one book I'm still reading isn't available yet in ePub format)
