It can either get converted well by emailing it or running it through Mobi Creator 95% of the time. if it can't... well, it usually can somehow but it'd be the same work as anything else and rarely worth it.

Just my take, at least.
Hmm... Was that with the original Sony 1.0 firmware or the later 1.1 firmware. The reason I'm asking is that the later firmware, as well as adding ePub support, added support for reflowing PDFs, which means that text-based PDFs then became a lot more 'readable' on the 505. The 700's got that plus a zoom-feature, so if the OP is considering a 6" e-Ink device, I'd recommend they take a look at the other options too (including the Cybook).
