Smile Just got my first reader (PRS-600)

After lurking for several months and trying to make up my mind over a PRS-600 or a Nook I took the plunge today and picked up a PRS-600, black, from my local Target ($279).

Any tips, tricks, and advice for a new owner? Started playing with the eBook Library software and browsed the offerings in my local library (unfortunately they seem to mostly have audiobooks, which I'm not interested in).

I decided to order the cover+light from the Sony Style store (on sale for $43).

Thanks!

Hmm. Thanks! eBook seems to be working ok except it won't transfer anything to my SD card. It displays the card and the default content types, but when I select it I get an error that the destination can no longer be accessed.
