I decided to put some ebooks on the iTouch for Stanza and I found out that using the Stanza desktop to convert to epub and to download them on the Touch worked fast and nicely. From all kinds of formats, lit, prc, txt, html, even pdf. The epubs generated by Stanza seem similar to the ones generated by Calibre in quality

Calibre was way slower in converting and it crashed twice even with 23 books or so as it usually does on many ebooks, and if not it takes a loong time and clogs my Pc so i cannot do anything else anyway.

I have not tried the Stanza epubs on my 700 though I saved them on my pc, but I still like lrf for the 700 since it's better rendered and faster.

So try Stanza desktop and direct downloading too - while for organizing books on the Pc nothing stops you to save your epubs in the Calibre directory of the given book to have a unified library, author based rather than device based
