I entirely agree with you that Sony may well drop their eBook readers; they don't have a particularly good track record in that area (eg look at Minidisc).
Actually eReader is owned by Fictionwise, not e-Reader.

I had the pdf's already on my computer and I wanted to try out Calibre for myself. I was concerned about how time consuming it may be. Boy that took all of a minute to do all of them. So no sweat there.

I think that Dale was pointing out that the name doesn't have a hyphen in it - a detail which I certainly appreciate knowing!
