Questions re Sony Touch PRS650

I can't find telephone support re the above. I am hoping someone here has this device and can answer some questions? I want to buy on (today) for someone.

goto page feature?
make collections even on non DRM EPUB books?
limit to number of collections?
limit to number books in collection (other than memory)?
will dictionary work even on non- DRM EPUB books?

Be VERY happy with even just a quick Y or N answer, thanks so much

goto page feature? YES
make collections even on non DRM EPUB books? YES, including mixing DRM and non-DRM
limit to number of collections? DON'T KNOW
limit to number books in collection (other than memory)? DON'T KNOW, I believe there are performance problems after a certain number?
will dictionary work even on non- DRM EPUB books? YES

Basicly, the Sony does not segregate DRM and non-DRM--or Sony and non-Sony--or side-loaded and loaded through the Reader software, books in any way.

I never realized this was an advantage to the Sony until reading some other threads in other boards.
