I think you can add/remove it using Calibre, when you convert from another format to LRF (the format used by the Sony Readers). Also, if you have an existing LRF file you can remove the header by using a couple of the command line utilities that come with Calibre:

1. lrf2lrs - converts a (DRM free) LRF file to LRS format
2. lrs2lrf - converts the LRS file from step 1 back to LRF

lrs2lrf actually reconstructs the LRF file from the LRS, and the resulting LRF file you end up with is not exactly the same as the LRF file you started with - one of the changes is that headers are stripped - I believe this is an unintentional feature (aka a bug). However, if like me you like to get as much wordage onto each screen as possible, and you do not need to be reminded on each screen of the book/author you are reading, then you might like this feature.
