I registered my PRS 600 then received an email to say I could download 100 free books - when I tried it then asked me to register again.

How do I get these books - will I need to register again with another email address??

    Hi nannygorgeous,

    Welcome to Question and Answers..

     

    Here what to do..

     

    First you need to Log-in to your My Sony account, using the details that you used to register your Reader. Click the following link - My Sony Log-In - https://www.sony.co.uk/mysony

    Once logged in click on the blue Product Details & Extras button next to your reader model..

    In your Reader models product page click on My Offers..

    Under the information about the 100 free books you should see 5 Click Here For..... links..

    Click each the first collection of books you want to download

    Then Save the file to your computer (for example, to your My Documents folder)

    Once the download has completed locate the Zip file  you saved on your computer

    Right-click on the file and choose extract

     

    Open Reader for PC or your eBook Library..

     

    If you want to import individual books then go to the File menu and choose the Import Files option

    Find the files that you have just extracted, select them and click Open

     

    If you want to import the whole collection then go to the File menu and choose the Import Folder option..

    Find the Folder that contains the selection you want to import select it and click Select Folder..

     

    Finally connect your Reader to your PC & Sync (add) the books to your reader..

    Is someone still selling new 600's ?

     

    They used to appear on the Reader page - particularly galling if looking for  x50's & T1's when they weren't available, I should think ! -  with the helpful "no longer available" legend, but haven't seen any for a while.........

     

    Just the odd s/hand, or - I assume imported from US as we aren't lucky enough to get them in Europe to my knowledge - factory re-furb's on ebay and the like.....

     

    "Caveat emptor", chaps and chapesses..................
