I've ordered my first ever eReader (505) from Play.com and am still waiting for it to be delivered. Whilst I'm waiting I thought I could download some books from the Baen website so I'm ready to roll as soon as I finally get it!

I've installed Calibre on to my laptop as I've read on here that it's better than the Sony software. Now I just feel overwhelmed by all the formats etc and feel very unsure how to proceed.

So what do I need to do next? Can I download the books before I get my reader? What format would be best?

Also I've read that I can use a Sony PSP charger to charge my 505 is this right?

Thanks everyone!
