If you are looking to share one or two books-on seperate accounts-can the books be on a memory card,can you do it that way ? (it seems to me this could work...no ? )
We maintain two seperate accounts (and actually I wasn't aware until this thread that you could not register a device on two accounts-grrr)-occasionally there is a book that either of us would like the other to read-and we'd like to read them WITHOUT having to switch readers (ESPECIALLY true,now that I just bought a 700....I mean that's how he ended up with his 505,because I didn't want mine to "disappear" and bought him one.....grr)-and we would not want to lose purchased books on either account (although somehow in the end it seems I will be paying for everything twice-I am sensing a pattern...) |

the other obvious way around this problem is to buy books in a format like lit or mobi and remove the drm.

I suggested in another thread that you can share an Adobe ID (for Secure Adobe ebooks) between ebook store accounts - however I have not tested this. Adobe has a 6 device limit, and a device can only be assigned to one Adobe ID, but the difference to the Sony store is that the Adobe ID isn't your account ID.

Or you could just exchange readers for a few days, while you each read the other person's books.
