I cannot reccomend Open Inkpot enough for the Bebook. It's endlessly customizable, has a longer battery life, is faster than the original firmware for screen updates and actually more stable. I've never had my Bebook crash on me before. In fact, the only difficulty I have ever experianced with the Bebook running the Open Inkpot firmware is that it can sometimes tend to move around the book as it doesn't have the ability to lock the screen. You can find yourself a few pages ahead or backwards. I get around it by bookmarking before stowing the book and using the 'Bookmark Added' screen as a lock. OI pretty much has an advantage over the original firmware in almost every respect. Clock on it's never in sync though.
I mainly convert all my ebooks to Mobipocket format by dragging the .html/.doc/.pdf/.rtf file into Mobipocket Reader, then using Mobi2Mobi GUI to change the book titles to my own system (I use a number of different sources for ebooks). Never had a book do anything besides show me words.
