The Sony "native" format is BBeB; with a file type of .lrs (non-secure) or .lrx (secure). It can also read .rtf (rich text), .txt, and .pdf files. With the most recent firmware update, the Sony Reader now has support for secure and non-secure ePub (open standard for eBooks) as well as secure Adobe books. See the MobileRead Wiki for lots of information on the Sony Reader. Info on the most recent firmware update was posted to the MobileRead forums.

If you've created a book from a copyright-free source -- or if you're the author and owner of the copyright -- and you want to share it, post it to the appropriate upload forum. Be sure to read the info in the upload help forum for rules, guidelines, help, etc.

Welcome to MobileRead. I have both a Kindle and a Sony Reader and I'm enjoying both. I'm sure you'll find a friendly group of folks here at MobileRead. Be sure to tell us what kinds of books you're reading and join in the various discussions.
