Sony has stopped selling lrf ebooks, and I heard that they actually try to stop you loading them on your 600 through their software, even though it supports them.

Instead they encourage you to download the epub versions from their store for free. So if you bought your lrf ebooks from sony, check if they are available in epub format in the sony store - if so, you can dowload the epub for free. Theoretically all the ebooks they ever sold will be available in epub format, but there are still many cases where you only find a "not available yet" message.

If your ebooks are drm-free, you can easily convert them with calibre to any other format, like epub.

However, I'm not sure if the wireless capabilities of the 900 will work in Europe.. Probably not, I would guess.
