You can convert PDFs to ePub with Calibre. In my experience this delivers a perfectly readable, if not perfectly pretty, result.
My Sony PRS-505 does all of the above as well (so does the PRS-600).

I don't use the Sony Reader desktop at all and I use ADE only to get the DRM'd books down to my PC so they can be liberated and then loaded to the reader through Calibre. Its easiest to get epubs and INEPTEPUB them because then they are ready to load without any re-formatting, but there are similar tools for PDF that will then free them so they can be re-processed through Calibre.
