Hi All
Hi
New here, Had my Sony 505 for a few months now, very pleased with it.

I cant find some books that Im after though, Ive looked in Waterstones and googled them but cant find them in ebook form.

They Are The Thomas Berryman Number by James Patterson and Spares by Michael Marshall.

The other thing that annoys me is the price of ebooks, some of the new books are priced at £15.99 for latest editions, seems very steep for a DL.

Hi TSGoons, and welcome to MobileRead.

I use the ebook price comparison site www.eBookPrice.Info to search for ebooks at the best price.
Their collection of eBook stores that it searches has grown considerably.

Click on the Union Jack if you are not quoted in £.

Your examples:I'm not sure of the geographical buying restrictions at all stores but I have seen mention of work-arounds on the forum.

I hope this helps.

Welcome to MobileRead, TSGoons!

I know there is conversion sofware out there for deDRMmobi files. You can use a search engine to find it. You can purchase books in Lit format from Fictionwise, decrypt them using ConvertLIT and convert to lrf in Calibre. I don't know if Fictionwise carries the books you are looking for, but I've always been able to find what I need there. Good luck.

Happy Reading!

Please help, Ihave bought pdb and mobipocket versions of a book to get try and get one on my Sony reader. So far though I cant convert either to a format for the Sony due to the DRM. Is there anyway I can get rid of this and convert the file.
Cheers TSGoons
