Sony Reader PRS-505 gets a major firmware upgrade
The update only works with the latest PRS-505 model and not the PRS-500 model that many people may still own. Also, the update is a Windows only update through the Sony software. New Sony Reader units will ship with the update pre-installed and there will be an exclusive red model available too.
I understand that the EPUB and Adobe Digital Edition formats are becoming more popular with publishers so it is encouraging to see support for these on the Sony Reader. This upgrade also gives us a bit of comfort that Sony plans to stay in the eBook game and continue to support our devices.
