Thanks Jack,
I'm wondering whether I'm getting the terms "register" and "authorize" mixed up?
I've registered the unit with Sony.

When I try to drag a DRM title over to the reader I get
"This eBook cannot be transferred because the Reader is authorized to another user"
So do I/prev owner have to de-authorise the unit with Adobe or Sony?

I am very confused (and thankful the s/h model my 79yr old mum just bought isn't yet authorised!).

Any light gratefully received!
