I don't really have anything new to add, just wanted to state that I also am having a lot of formatting issues.

I currently have a bunch of ebooks in .rtf and .txt but a lot of them display all wacky on the Sony.

-Hard return paragraph spacing is not correct or does not exist at all
-Justification is off in some areas
-Word wrap is not working correctly or appearing when it should not
-Page breaks are not occuring in the correct places
-Some text is garbled and or corrupted

Doing manual editing of margins and font sizes somewhats alieviates the problem. Although, the dream of just dragging and dropping my existing ebooks onto this device is not a reality. Sigh.. Oh well.
