Send us your email address, and we will notify you when the update is available.
Thank you,

Since I’m a Mac person this is great news, but since I smashed my 505 the news isn’t terribly relevant to me.
Udate 4:20 pm EST: I just received the same email from Sony.

I’m also a Mac person and I own a PRS-500, which they didn’t mention in their announcement. For now I’m content to use Calibre.
The sony ebook library is a sad piece of software. Slow and ugly can’t see much reason to use it with my 505. Calibre will continue to do for now.
How many years did this take? oy.
