Ok, I bought a book with the Reader software after my 900 wouldn't do it directly because it always rejected the ADE password, then I tried to transfer it via USB, and the Reader Library asked me if I wanted to authorise the 900 because it wasn't authorised yet, so I entered my ADE password and it just gives me a hung "Please Wait" screen.

1. I downloaded ADE and created an account.
2. I downloaded Reader Library, created an account and linked it to my ADE account.
3. I logged in to my Sony account on my 900.
4. I tried to buy a book, it told me I needed to enter my ADE password, so I did. It hung and wouldn't do anything.
5. I tried that a few more times, same result every time.
6. I bought the book on the Reader Library software finally, then tried to transfer it via USB, it asked me to authorise my 900 because it hadn't been yet. I enter my ADE password and it hangs on "Please Wait".

I'm going to try to authorise it on PC now.
