Then Word will like it. And the real problem I see is that a lot of HTML books are generally not formatted the way I'd like them to be so I don't mind converting them using html2lrf or Book Designer. I've used both and they are both very good for use with the Sony Reader. If you get books from Project Gutenberg with pictures, html2lrf is great to use. I think The issue here is getting things on your reader no matter what reader ina format that you will enjoy. The Sony is easy because of people who have put in their time to make such very good tools to use to convert.
