Could you give me the link you got that info from, I didn't see it anywhere myself.

You might need to delete and reinstall the Sony software, but you should be OK just switching locations (you'll have to use UK, I think - I don't think Sony realises that Ireland isn't in the UK).

Registration at the WH Smith ebook store is a bit of a pain. I had to switch browsers (I'm on a Mac) to get it to work)

Im from the UK and you have to download and open an Adobe Digital Editions account and authorise your reader and computer with them. Once you have authorised them in ADE the Sony E Library should recognise your reader. Go to WH Smiths website and in the FAQs of the ebook section see the question about Adobe Epub Ebook then click on "the Basics" and that should explain the procedures
I must admit I had a lot of trouble with all this but I managed to authorise the computer easily enough but I had to use the old version of the Ebook library before I could authorise my reader.
My advice would be if you do manage to authorise them both before buying an expensive book try downloading a cheap book to check that it works
