There is a program to convert them, however you would have to remove the DRM for them first which may be illegal... it's a point of debate around here all the time.

That said, you can't buy eBooks from Amazon unless you have a kindle.

I do think that B&N will eventually sell ePub format which the sony reader does support. So, no conversion will be needed.
