I know Book designer can create LRF files, and I heard that the Sony reader can read epub, but I don't think I've seen it so far.
Is it a format, when I have it on my sony reader, I can copy and read it straight from a kindle, cybook, iliad or Jinke/Bebook system?

Yes, the Sony (505 & 700) can read ePub. No, the Kindle, Cybook et all can't (at least not yet, it's supposed to be coming for at least some of them). You can put the ePub into Calibre & in a few seconds have a Mobi or LRF file (maybe Lit too, I'm not sure) and a lot of devices, besides the Sony, will read Mobi.

ePub certainly seems to have a good chance for the broadest amount of support so far.
