@jcrochford: "Is it possible to deactivate an unused copy of Microsoft 
reader in order to keep my activation quota down?  It 
would seem that, eventually, a new passport would be 
required and all of my downloaded e-books will one day 
become useless?  Any suggestions?"
    @bgvallelunga: "Lack of "deactivation" is the one reason I haven't purchased ebooks. I enjoy
the free ones that have been put out, but I don't want my books to expire
just because I switch computers/pdas/laptops. At the rate I go through
devices, I would use up all of my allowed activations over the course of
just a few years. This is unacceptable. I am not sure why MS has seemingly
stopped development on Reader and not added a deactivation feature. It is to
their loss.
