If you're not going to take out the hard line breaks inside the paragraphs and you choose a font size that doesn't display 80+ characters per line, then, yes.

However, many of these PG files are in HTML format and can be run through BD or Mobigen and turned into PRC files without any real problem. Just a matter of a couple of minutes effort. And the number of current Mobi titles is far greater than those available for the PRS. If you want a Sony, then go for a Sony... But I like my Cybook.
