The software on the Sony readers should allow more things to be overridden, such as margins, fonts, and font size. In an ideal world this wouldn't be necessary but all of the ePub books I have bought look nasty on the PRS-600 because the margins and font size are inappropriate. However I can read them fine in Stanza on the iPhone because that has options to cheerfully ignore the font/margins coded into the ePub.

All of the ePub books that I have converted myself with Calibre (from PDB/LIT) look excellent on the Sony. The problem is software, so there may yet be a firmware upgrade that gives us that extra layer of control on the Reader?
