Hello
Hello,

Avid reader here looking to educate myself before buying my reader. Prior to now my ebook experience has been limited to Mobipocket on my PC, PDA, and cell phone.

Will likely get the new Sony series 700 or wait until Kindle 2.

One quit question if someone can point me in the right direction. Can Kindle books be used on the Sony reader?

Welcome to the forum!

I don't know the answer to your question, I'm afraid, but I'm sure someone more knowledgable than I will be along shortly

Hi daesdaemar and welcome to the Forum.

There is very good conversion software available here on MobileRead. But, if the Kindle books are DRM protected that software alone won't do the trick. My technical betters will chime in here and give you a more thorough answer.

Only if you remove the DRM (possible with the .azw files but not the .azw1 files.) Once you've done that you can convert them to LRF for the Sony. Of course you can't buy a Kindle ebook without owning a Kindle.
