Then there's the trouble of downloading DRM'd ebooks over dialup; I don't know how likely they are to crash or get corrupted.

Bleh. Too much hassle. When I run out of great fanfic and the occasional Baen or Smashwords purchase to read, I'll look again.
All you actually need is an account at adobe.com and ADE. Then you can authorize ADE and your Sony. After you are all set with ADE and your Sony, all you need to borrow library eBooks is your web browser. You would download the ACSM file which would tell ADE to download the eBook and once downloaded, you can use ADE or Reader Library to move the eBook to your Sony. It's not difficult and even on dialup it will work fine (just slower).
