I think the ability of the Sony Reader to open to RTFs and text files has been woefully underemphasized in all the recent reviews. Its great to be able to buy books but I'm more excited by the ability to load content onto the reader that I want and not have to sit at a computer to read through a lengthy piece.

I want the ability to save long web articles to RTF. Is there a Firefox extension to save a page to RTF? Or a HTML to RTF conversion program? I have been doing this successfully with Acrobat Pro and also by opening saved sites in MS Word. Paperless Printer also works but it takes a long time. There should be a more direct way to do this from the browser.

Any suggestions?
