About the risks: 300 is very similiar to 505 (basically it's the same hardware). It also has a neat "10 resets" feature, that allows to unbrick it into firmware update state, which makes it nearly unbrickable. Downside of 300 is, however, that there is no official Sony Updater for 300 (modified one for 505 works nevertheless). So restoring to original sony firmware is not immediately possible, you could update it to 505 firmware, and then flash using one of the available firmwares (by boroda, amutin or PRS+). Restoring 300 to original "factory" state will be doable with prs+ installer + backup files.

I bought my reader in Germany.

Now we need somebody who'd risk "force" installing it via advanced settings.
Once it is confirmed, I'll add 1.0.00.18160 to safe list in installer.
