I haven't had any feedback from people who have ereaders, however, and I won't try to tweak the formatting until/unless I get complaints.
I just looked at the ePub and Mobi versions. I guess it depends on what you like for formatting I didn't find them bad, but before I personally were to read it I guess I'd personally be spending some time doing thing to the file(s). I don't like that the Mobi file's paragraphs are only indented one space, it's barely noticeable. I don't like that the Mobi version doesn't have chapter breaks or a cover. I don't like that neither version has a table of contents. I don't like books with a blank line between each paragraph. Picky? Yeah I can be, I'm used to having to reformat stuff from Smashwords and sometimes elsewhere before I read it. I'm sure for most folks it's just fine as is, I mean I wouldn't really change anything if I were you unless you can give the Mobi a cover, but I think that's a Smashwords problem in general.
