Sony PRS-500

[damned_colonial]

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?

Calibre is an ebook conversion program designed for the Sony Reader; it's open source, free, and cross-platform.

You can find seven bazillion free ebook sites at Mobileread's free ebook page in their wiki (which has plent of other ebooky info).

amalthia's Fanfiction ebook library has over 800 stories. She runs fanfic_ebooks at LJ; there's no comparable DW comm yet, AFAIK.

I am a cheerfully endless source of ebook babble; let me know if there's anything specific you're interested in. (I don't always have answers, but I know how to find them, or how to phrase the questions over at Mobileread so they'll answer it all for me.)
