I'm thinking of importing the new Sony Reader device, but their Connect store doesn't sell ebooks to the UK. Do you know of any other suppliers of ebooks that would be compatible?

Dave Saunders, via email

The UK version of Sony's Connect site does not include ebooks, so it might be worth delaying a Reader purchase for now

Some users attempting to go down this route have hit a brick wall when it comes to DRM, so we'd suggest having a nose around the Mobile Read forums to see what other non-US users are doing before you buy.

Tom   |23/11/07 11:00 AM I have owned a Sony PRS-500 (imported from US) since January and am disappointed by the battery life. The claimed "7500 page-turns" just isn't true in the case of my machine. The user interface is crummy, too, and while the screen is great I feel the whole thing is overpriced. Really, who needs to carry thousands of books around with them? 10 or 20, perhaps, with the rest sitting on your computer's hard drive, would be plenty for most of us. Maybe the new model is better. Anyhow, think carefully before stumping up all that dosh! Advice on getting ebooks is here: http:/ /www.mobileread .com/ Reply | Quote
