Quick question about multiple readers

sunfrog14 · 11-17-2009, 10:05 AM

Hi everyone! I hope you are all enjoying your wonderful November.

I believe for the Sony eBook library you can have up to 6 devices (including computers) that are assigned.

My question is can a sony reader be assigned to multiple sony ebook accounts? See, as of Christmas there will be three in the house and each are getting their own gift certificates on their account. So maybe to clarify, if I have account X linked with my PRS-600, account Y linked with my PRS-300 and account Z linked with my PRS-505 can i also link the PRS 600 with account Y and/or Z?

Thanks for help in advance!!

No. One device can be assigned to one account at any one time. You can of course remove a device from an account, and re-register it to another, but then you won't be able to read any books registered to the original account on that device.

We decided early on, in our household of multiple readers, that there would be one account and created a mutual email account for both eBook Library and ADE.

This means you have to trust everyone with the credit card,

but it makes sharing painless.
