DAK if an ereader or a small pc can be used on a plane?

Also what is the battery life/replacement like on the Sony?

I find most mobile devices seem to need new batteries after a couple of years, some are not available and even if they are they never work as well as the originals.

I see the Sony505 is avaiable in the US, is there any reason not to buy 1 there and have it shipped? From what I've read on these boards the warrenty is practically worthless anyway.

Also, now I'm on a roll, with the Sony 505, is it possible to transfer txt files & web pages onto it, with out going through their site, and no doubt paying for it?

As you can see I know very little about these ereaders.
