I didn't say you could not use them. Just that they are obsolete. The reading experience with some of these old Readers is not all that good. For example, the K1 & K2. You cannot embed fonts in Mobi. You cannot use side loaded fonts. The fonts that are part of the firmware do not have enough weight. Mobi has no hyphenation. So overall, not a good reading experience.
Sony (505) LRF with simulated italics is not good unless you embed fonts. Left justified ePub is not all that good.
