Cool How was the conversion process? Lit --> LRF

So, after I got it, I redownloaded all 92 of my books in .lit format (All purchased from fictionwise) and converted them to LRF. Now they are looking real pretty on the reader ;-)
Was the conversion automatic? ie require much cleaning up? What program did you use? I've been waiting for this tech since I first heard about E-ink seams like ages ago, back when it was just out of MIT. Glad to see Sony got a reader out in a more polished model and better starting price. If I were working now or if the Sony did newspapers and mags as well, I think I would have one. Its still tempting.
