One important note: always make sure that you've properly dismounted the Reader before unplugging the USB cable. If you're in calibre, use the little icon that pops up next to the reader in the device bar. If you're in the Sony Library, it has something similar (though I don't know exactly what; I quit using it several versions ago). If neither, use whatever your OS provides -- in Windows XP, it's a "safely remove hardware" icon down in the system tray. This makes sure all buffered data is written, all files are closed properly, etc., before the device is physically disconnected. Not doing this won't cause a problem 99% of the time, but the 100th time it will do something nasty, like hose your Reader database and you'll have to transfer all your ebooks again.
