but with calibre installed it's So easy to convert -

put all your .epubs into calibre library, plug in your kindle, select send to device...then eject kindle, start reading - calibre will even offer to auto-convert for you - on the fly.

you don't need to know anything about the underlying book formats, really.

kindle is much cheaper than a sony 605 with the same 6 inch screen & has wi-fi & thus web browsing built in.

only get sony if you like touch screen and/or if you like sony's awful pc software interface.
