Question New prs 600, but missing things from prs 505
Hi,

I just got my prs 600, and so far it works great.

However, I'm missing some things that my old prs 505 had, but I can't seem to find them on the prs 600. Thanks to you guys I have already found the bookmark, but for instance, how do go to the end of a book? That is one simple button on the prs 505.

The little booklet that came with the prs 600 can hardly be called a manual. I went to Sony e support to download the real manual, but then they asked me for a password. Anybody know that password or where I can get the 'real' manual?
Thanks.

You have the User's Guide on your reader. It is in a ZIP file (PRS600_UG.zip) under the Documents folder that can be seen when the Reader is connected to a PC. You can also download it from the Sony site using this link without needing a password.

Tap the top right corner... this will book mark that page.

To jump to the end of a book - press the Options button, choose Go to Page, and drag the ruler all the way to the end. [or tap the right end of the line]
I have to admit though this is not as quick as a single button click.

you can get to 'go to page' by tapping directly on the page numbers on the bottom of the screen (bottom center)

Exactly. You can get to end of page with 2 taps. Tap page number at bottom of screen and tap the right end of the page slider.

Just a minor correction; it takes a double tap in top right corner to create bookmark.
