Also take care… the important is the content. The form in what you reed is a “passing technology”… maybe in 1 year or 2 we will have 10/12” eink screens (colour per example…) letting us read PDF/PRC/Sony format and the most html, txt, doc, rtf formats - then you would have been wasting your time converting.
.

I understand. I was just hoping that you all with quiet abit more experience might have a solution that I had overlooked or missed.

I am a bit leery of using pdf as the experience on the Sony has been....uncomfortable.

Another reason I was intrested is because, I just gave the Sony to my mother and will be loading & managing it for her.
As while she does use a computer, using the Sony Connect software is not somthing I would inflict on her. I was just hoping that if I could standerdise on a single format, I could just give her a bunch of preloaded SD cards and change them when ever i get the chance.
