Fictionwise

Hey,

Yes, I know, there are about a trillion topics on Fictionwise & how to get them to work on the Sony Reader, but could somebody check my steps and see if they're correct?

1. Download book from Fictionwise in Microsoft Reader format.
2. Strip DRM from book using 'ConvertLIT', following steps in Readme.
3. Run it through Calibre, adding book covers and metadata as needed.
4. Open folder where BBeB book and data is.
5. Open BBeB book (which launches in eBook Library).
6. Import into Library after confirming all text is there.
7. Sync onto Sony Reader.

Sorry, but I've already researched and can't seem to figure it out correctly, and what I've managed to understand is above. Seems to work on the free book from Fictionwise (some sort of biography or something), but I want to make sure it'll work on all books (in MS Reader format) before dishing out for a book which costs money.
