Hi Vickivanv, welcome aboard!
> Thanks for the heads-up about Calibre, Rahulm. I have a couple of things I'd like to try that on. I realize not everyone wants to convert, though.
While Calibre and "Mobipocket Reader" (in my experience, this is slightly better) both have a decent go at converting PDF to HTML, the results are at best 'ok' rather than 'good'. It's prone to missing identifying headings and especially to inserting line-breaks where there should be paragraphs.
> mentioned epub as a good ebook format, and lrf as well.
ePub is an up & coming 'standard' format, which is currently supported by the Sony 505 & 700 readers plus others (JetBook?), with more readers having announced support for it while LRF is the original Sony format and the only reflowable one supported by the Sony 500. EPub seems to be one of the main formats of choice for many of the European publishers (along with Mobi).
