Best of course is subjective, but I'm thinking in terms of small file size, good legibility, and nice formatting. I know I have some issues with some pdf files (letters too small, even when using maximum zoom.. I need new reading glasses
Thanks,

Mobi and prc are the exact same format. The Epub is actually poorly done on the Hanlin with lots of problems. Mobi format generally looks good. PDB (PalmDOC) files look good but they have very little formatting similar to TXT but better compressed.
Mobi formatting is fine and fairly easy to read with good support except the TOC feature is difficult to use and the bookmarking is difficult to use. (take too many keypresses). FB2 is a good format and well supported but there are not many eBooks available in that format (you need to convert).
