When I had my Sony 500, I bought Alex Ross' "The Rest is Noise" from the Sony Bookstore, which was so poorly formatted I would have returned it if there was any way of doing so, so I think formatting problems are not peculiar to the Kindle.

But the Kindle's biggest formatting problem, it seems to me, is that it allows publishers to sabotage their own product by producing books that are Topaz-formatted. It not only sabotages the book, it sabotages the device, and why Amazon allows it is a mystery to me.
