Body: <p>I've a Sony PRS-650 with lots of notes (highlighted text in books). Is there any tool which can migrate these notes to other ebook readers' format or is there any other e-book reader which supports Sony's notes? (Is newer Sony Readers use the same format at all?)</p>
  
  <p>What kind of device could I buy without losing my notes?</p>

  The Sony Reader software that came with the reader has an option to export notes as an RTF file. I'm not sure whether or not you can import the notes into another device though.
  
  I'm not able to find a user manual and I don't have the software on this laptop (I do on my other one, so perhaps I can find the information later). However, I did find a [blog](http://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/2010/10/18/sony-prs-650-and-350-shortcuts-tips-and-tricks/) that gives a basic step-by-step of how to export the notes:
