How do I download the 100 free books??

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??

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.................. :cool:
