When I download Globe and Mail feed using Calibre recipe and then download it to my Sony PRS-600 and then view it, there is always a page on which the PRS-600 freezes for very long time, even 'reset' does not help immediately, only after couple of minutes of being frozen if I try to repeat 'reset' and power-on the device would reset and come back alive.

I tried to modify the recipe and use if from the command line (ebook-convert) and look at the downloaded HTML to figure out what exactly in the Globe and Mail HTML freezes the PRS-600, but without success.

Any help with this?

Also, when I download generated epub to the Sony PRS-600, Calibre reports following error:
