Thanks, Thawk! I will check out your version.

I am presently once again struggling with trying to reflash my firmware. I am starting to be of the opinion that there is something slightly off either about my reader or my home computer... the internal memory and the SD card gets screwed up way to easily when I attempt to work with them at home. When I fool around elsewhere though, problems are strangely less frequent.

How long is the firmware update supposed to take? The last 5-10+ times I've tried this afternoon, it either failed very quickly, or eventually timed out after a very long time.

I really like my PRS-505, but now and then I feel that it is as good as it is despite Sony's myriad attempts to cripple it as much as possible.
