Nice, plain, well formated rtf file *without* the DRM crap.
You see, the Reader can - unlike Kindle - read txt or rtf of pdf files directly, without conversion.
You can load rtf file directly to you reader, or, even better, you can load it into OpenOffice.org Writer or other word processor (like MS Word), format it to your taste and save as rtf file. That is what *I* personally like to do.
The problem, however, with using RTF is that the Reader doesn't display the pictures. Many Baen books have things like maps in. IMHO you're losing significant content by losing them.
