Will Sony reader & calibre be useful enough for me?

Hi

I'm thinking of buying a Sony Reader. Not so much for readiung books - more web pages.

reason - I love reading all kinds of web articles. However, I dont like reading
long articles on a computer monitor.

I downloaded calibre to see how it works. I got it to convert a daily mail newspaper atricle. When I view it in the viewer tho, I have to scroll across to get the text in the window (see attached).

My questions:

-Whenever u open a translated file using 'View' in Calibre - is this how it is going to look when displayed through the Sony Reader. ie. will i have to scroll across on the actual viewer?

-Does anyone else do much of this ie read web articles on the Reader. if so, do u find the process pretty painless or is it more hassle than its worth?

Thanks!
