It was a long time ago.

Regardless, another person says this works between Sony and Kobo. Good to know.
You can use calibre and the Sony or ADE software will still recognize your device. Just don't use the Sony software to sync books to your device. Just drag and drop the DRM'd ebooks to the Sony reader icon. Or, if your eBooks don't have DRM, you can skip the Sony software altogether and just use calibre.
