Thanks for your fast replies.
I think I should describe my second question more clearly:

We know a paper book often has a "Table of Content" which helps a reader finds some chapter fast.
Similiarly, in my opinion, an ebook should support the TOC for convenient reading, too. (Iamgine a 1000 pages ebook has "no" TOC...)

An user can bulid a TOC in either a PDF (or a DOC) file by PC.
Can the Sony Reader natively read the built-in TOC of a PDF file?
Or we need "convert" or "rebuilt" the a special TOC format for the Sony Read by some edition tool?

In addition, we know TXT, RTF, JPG... does not support the TOC on PC.
When I use them as an "ebook" for Sony Reader, I wonder this ebook have a TOC (whehter the converted BBeB, or the native files).
So,
will Sony provide the edition tool for Sony Readre users to add TOC, add/delete pages, edit pages with different file format (i.e. p1~10 are rtf, p11 is jpg...), etc?
