Like Mobi - PDF - Epub? I realize some formatting options might be lost, but is it possible technically?

you can convert non-drm mobi directly to epub (don't go via pdf, it's not necessary) using calibre. it's not the best practice in terms of formatting and meta data but for personal use it's perfectly acceptable.

2) I read that Sony requires PC connection to upload any new e-books and Cybook doesn't. How does it work for Bookeen then? There is no Wifi...

hm, i'm not sure what you mean by that ; both require being connected to a pc (via usb cable) to upload new books. perhaps it was a reference to the sony software, which is only compatible with pc (not mac) ? in any case, both will mount as an external disk and files can be transferred via the file explorer, or you can use calibre, or you can use the bundled software (but whenever i recommend calibre !).
take a look here for lots of free books to get you started. the 505 will read epub and lrf natively, and other formats can be converted. also check feedbooks.com for more free books ; you will find excellent quality epubs there.
