Janette was reading the calibre quickstart guide, which is most definitely not DRM-locked. Her problems have nothing to do with DRM restrictions (and DRM-locked ebooks can be transferred, though not edited, by cailbre). Not to mention, she was in the middle of reading the book already.

Janette, the problem is almost certainly battery-related. Sony Readers lie about their battery status. I've seen crystal balls more accurate then the battery bar. If you have a wall charger, plug it in and give it a good (4+ hour, overnight would be better) charge. You have to be careful with the USB charger, because most computers shut off power to their USB ports when they go into sleep mode, at which point the Reader tries to power the computer!
