Hi all..

Greetings to all.

I am a new user of this forum, and a old time reader :-). I was looking to buy an ereader, shortly. Never thought I wud progress from my Pocket pc, but all this eInk etc is driving me to make the plunge.

Got a small doubt, may I. Is it possible to read the prc or pdb files (that I usually read using mobipocker reader) using Sony PRS 505? Or is there a program that converts it? I have some valuable PDB files with me, and it would be cool to read them in Sony 505.

Also, I have some PDF files which a friend gave me, which are mainly the DUMMIES section. For example, like the Buying a Computer for Dummies etc. Will it be possible for me to read those pdf files comfortably in the Sony 505?? I am kinda bored trying that with my pocket pc small screen, even with reflowing, as it loses tabular format and structure.

Have a great day, all.

Dave
