I'm loving the 600 but my goodness what a hassle once you go even vaguely beyond wonderful Calibre and public domain books. Authorising was a nightmare, the Sony store UK has no option to authorise a device in the 'my account' fields - how very mad is that!

No support from them. Worked round that (by saying I was in the States when launching the library software for the first time so finally got taken to a place where I could authorise).

Then found Calibre wouldn't recognise the Reader post authorisation. Had to start all over again on another Mac. Over 400 books on Calibre on the lap top and no reader recognition, empty Calibre that does recognise the Reader on the desktop. Confused, try living it!

Now ADE won't handle library books on PC, even though all authorised and registered and using the same ID details.

So yeah, that bit is a complete nightmare. Such a struggle.

But the Reader is great, compact, lovely style, intuitive setup in the Reader itself and I'm loving the ability to make notes in mid book. Screen fine for me and capacity is great.

Just wish it was plug and play. I've been spoilt by Apple. Audible through iTunes onto iPod, very slick and totally trouble free.
