My PRS-505 is currently on the way to my house courtesy of UPS.

Before I go on a shopping spree I would also like to know which formats are best for me. I don't envisage the Sony being my last or only reader so I will want a format useable by other readers (or easily convertible).

I have downloaded 2 free books from Fictionwise in different formats to see what I like the best. It seems a lot of people like the Microsoft Reader format (.lit?) for easy conversion.
Should I be converting to .LRF for the Sony?

I already have the Sony Software and Calibre on my PC for testing.

So what format do you buy DRMless books in and what do you convert to?
What format do you buy DRM books in and do you format them to something else?

Sorry for all the nooby questions.
