There have been many negative comments about the Windows-centric approach that Sony took with the Connect store. Direct connection without any desktop machine in the loop gets round this, and should be very good for daily newspaper delivery. Based on the manual, there is also a typical USB client option for downloading content from a desktop machine. This should work from Linux/OSX, but MobiPocket is aggressively Windows-centric at the desktop level so some things (e.g. importing other file formats) will require Windows if you want to stick with MobiPocket software.
