New Reader Store in UK
Got an email today telling me about the new Reader Store for the UK with a free book offer. Unfortunately I can no longer access the Reader Store on my PRST1. I get a message saying "The requested URL /auth was not found on this server" Has anyone else come across this problem? I can still get to the Reader Store via my PC but its not as convenient.

You need to reset your password. Do that from your computer, and you'll probably be able to access from your PRTS1 again.

Found I can access the Reader Store by entering the url directly into the PRST1 browser but I can't access it from the Reader Store button on the home page.

Same problem. The reader store has different url. Just checked to see if there is a firmware update available which there isn't. I assume Sony will release this soon

I sent email to support to ask when this might happen. The reply was that it had been escalated up the chain.
Also just read on digital reader blog that the new store is powered by txtr. They provide their services for many different ebook stores so not sure what that means for sony readers in the mid term. |

Now reader store works again. Cleaner layout. No Newspapers any more. They must have set up a redirection.

That's interesting. I had a subscription to the Daily Mail Sunday edition which Sony sent notification a few weeks ago was going away. There are no more UK newspapers in the US store now.
