Sony PRS-500

I just acquired a Sony PRS-500 in a roundabout way. It's old, but works, I guess. It came with nothing but a charging cable and a kinda bizarre assortment of books on it, all of which I deleted except one.

Anyway, I know nothing! Clue me up, people! What do I need to know?

(I'm using OSX and have found Docudesk's PRS Reader already.)

Oh, also, I think I saw somewhere that there was a DW comm for people making ebooks of fanfic. I can't find it through interest search. Anyone know what I'm thinking of?

If you get Calibre you can convert html files to Sony format and read fic that way. Supposedly you can take multi-pages fics and combine them into one file but I'm not good at it. Long stuff I just cut and paste into a .rtf and convert that over.
