Hello Ruth, thanks for leaving a comment. You can find manuals for Sony products on our eSupport site: http://esupport.sony.com. Type your model number in the search field and you'll get access to all the manuals there. Hope this helps.

Apparently, 2 new models ( the PS300 and PS600) have been spotted on Sony's website. Here's one link http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=52303

To answer some of you questions------ Al- Due to high demand, we have sold out of the PRS700 on SonyStyle.com. We are currently reviewing our PRS700 inventory and will provide updates as soon as it is available again through SonyStyle.com. However, our retail partners are carrying inventory and customers are invited to visit their stores to purchase the product.------ RachaelMc & yukari- Currently it is released in the US, Canada, France, Germany, UK, Austria and Switzerland. We'll be sure to let you know when it is available in other countries.------ Me- Yes you do need the software, which is easy to use. You can check out SonyStyle.com which has customer reviews of each product------ RachaelMc & Bill- Thanks for your suggestions about the search function at the store. We'll be sure to share it with the eBook store team.

When are you releasing in Australia? And I agree with Bill, need better search and discover functionality in the e-store.

What happened to the 700? Its not for sale at Sony Style and I cant find it any longer on Sony's web site ( only the 505 ). Is a new model on the horizon? Al

Is it going to be available in Japan?

  • 7/30/2009

Uh oh.... you need software from Sony to transfer? Is it any good? I am still traumatized from Sonicstage...
