I noticed a few books at fictionwise, that I would like to read, are cheaper than the Sony store, but they are in mobi format. Can I buy them and use Calibre to convert them for use on the Sony? Or do they have DRM that needs to be removed first?

Any help would be great. I've had my Sony for about a month. Love it.
Mostly download books from the library and also bought a few from Sony.
