You will be able to convert non-DRM Kindle volumes, but not those you buy from the Kindle store.

That was a good price on the PRS-505. Be sure it has the latest firmware when you get it. This will allow it to read EPUB files which is a big plus.

I don't know how you feel about fully justified text, but I hate it. I like left justification, and for this reason I prefer RTF files on my 505. Also, I often save an entire book in boldface to improve the contrast.

Good luck!
