I think I will maintain buying LIT format from Fictionwise and convert to LRF.

Nope wont work on the 500 which is what I also have and I don't intend to upgrade at this time. It seems that the average price difference between print and e-book is around the 2 pounds, seems rather expensive.

... but not DRM-protected ePub (which is what Waterstones are selling) to LRF.

so far there only seems to be about 4000 titles available as opposed to the "tens of thousands of books available on launch" quoted on the Sony Site.

Let's hope they are still adding titles
