Using the Sony eBook Reader with a Mac
About a year ago I wrote about my experiments with getting a Sony PRS500 Reader talking to my Mac.
Quietly, over that time, it's been getting easier, as Kovid Goyal has turned his rather unexcitingly-named libprs500 from a basic command-line utility to a full-featured GUI application, which can do things like capture RSS feeds and format them for the Sony. It still has some quirks, but is well-worth checking out, and it runs on Windows, Mac and Linux.

- It was written several months ago, when there wasn't much available elsewhere.
- Not everybody reading the blog is doing so as a result of a Google search.
- Some people read the original post a year before and were grateful for an update.
- One reason it's easy to find other stuff now is because posts like this link to it and so raise it in the page rank.
- I have absolutely no interest in buying eBook texts from Sony... nor do most of my friends
I could list several more reasons but that should raise your consciousness level a bit. As for your question, fortunately, there's so much information out there on the internet that posting a response would be superfluous, even assuming your tone had made me feel benevolent... :-)
