Converting them is no problem. Got Calibre and figured that out pretty easy. For the one's NOT DRM protected that is. Those with DRM are a no go because Calibre does not remove that, unfortunately, and it just so happens that most of the one I have not read yet are the DRM ones. Unless it does and I just don't know how. If so, someone plz speak up. There is no way I am buying them again. And I have been looking around and can't seem to find a product to un-drm it. Can convert them to a pdf, but man are they ugly.

Keep in mind I know nothing about DRM til I just tried to convert one of these. Don't know the legalities, but honestly, don't care. I bought it and as far as I am concerned it is mine to do with as I plz. Enough of that; I refuse to get embroiled in some debate on that subject.

As for the not-supporting epub comment earlier. Yes, I was fully aware they did not support epub but so many made fun of me when I expressed my disappoint saying I was basically lazy for not just converting them with Calibre. So, I get Calibre, buy the Sony, and now I am thinking I am good to go. Nope.

Just wish the K2 had not had the lack of contrast then I would have kept it and all my books would be good to go. But I have alot of money in my unread books on my Sony and have no wish to tote two readers around for now.

I think this new Kindle is pretty nice and will get one some day after I have finished up all my books on my Sony. So, maybe next year some time.

Unless I can figure this DRM problem out in the next week or so. I do have the 30 days thingie to mess around.
