I don't want to dampen your enthusiasm, but I read today in another thread that work on the PDF engine is stalled because there is no developer currently working on it. Unless that changes, you're in for a wait.

now, i would like to learn a little more.
what would be the recommended format to convert to? (if possible, why)
Depends on what you want to read on. If you want to read with the Calibre viewer you'll probably be happiest with ePub, since the viewer converts to ePub internally if the file isn't already in that format. Also, ePub seems to have the most extensive support for formatting out of all the ebook formats (I don't count PDF as an ebook format).

and would be possible to add an eeepc t101mt profile for the output list?

it has 1024x768 and 1024x600 (default), so in tablet mode 768x1024 would be my choice.
The output profile mostly just sets cover image sizes and margins. Try setting it to default, that ought to work. The ebook text itself is reflowable, so display size doesn't really matter much.
