Reading Word doc on T1

So far I found several methods to place a Word doc onto T1:

1) Save As PDF, copy PDF to T1

2) Export HTML Filtered -> Calibre -> ePUB -> T1

3) BookCreator Tool v3.0 template -> ePUB -> T1

I just got my T1 and haven't used these methods a lot. My context is I am dealing with miscellany office documents, mostly specifications, in Word documents. They are generally from 10 to 100+ pages, some diagrams, tables, etc.

My question is what method you are using the most to read Word docs on your T1 or other Sony reader? Should I keep it simple and use (1) always? What are advantages of (2) and (3)?

Keep in mind these are transient docs I may read/use for a few weeks, then discard them. They are not books that I want to keep for a super long time.

In summary, what is your experience and habits when dealing with MS Office apps such as Word?

thanks
