Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Something is questionable with the EPUB's internal layout. I have also seen it go the other way with EPUBs that would open fine on my PRS-650, but that would choke FBreader on my Netbook.
Try doing a EPUB to EPUB conversion in Calibre (make sure your EPUB output profile is set to 'Sony')
If that doesn't fix the problem, you might also try doing a EPUB -> MOBI and then convert back MOBI -> EPUB. (be sure when doing this second conversion to override the source type in the upper left to 'MOBI' because Calibre keeps setting it back to EPUB by default)
If Calibre doesn't choke on the conversion, then this will hopefully give you a file that is at least readable on the Sony.
