installing PRS+ Sony 650/Mac
Hi guys, is there an installer for Mac? I am curious about PRS+, but I don't see anything about how to install it (for any platform). I have looked at the "InstallGuide" here:
http://code.google.com/p/prs-plus/wiki/InstallGuide and there seems to be nothing there about installing it? Likewise the user guide here: http://code.google.com/p/prs-plus/wiki/UserGuide Nothing about how to install. What am I missing? Where should I be looking? Thanks, eP |

Unfortunately, you should be looking for a PC running windows. I tried with Crossover and Parallels, but had to break down and use a real PC for the five minutes it takes.

Hi elemenoP,
here is the link to the readme, mentioned in the PRS+ project-page-WIKI And here is the text: Spoiler:
Unfortunately updating/flashing the Sony PRS650 rely on a windows-dll. But as EldRick wrote, this is only neccessary once. To install the PRS+ enabled base-firmware. |

Thanks, guys! So the Windows machine doesn't need Sony Reader software or anything else on it, right?
