I am seriously close to picking up a Kindle over the Sony 505. Due mainly to I hate Sony software and it sounds as if the Kindle has more to offer and books/magazines are easy to purchase.

I have a lot of books in LIT or TXT formats that I will want to being into the Kindle to read. I spend evening reading to my visually impaired wife and I will read a lot of stuff that I've read before. Can the Kindle handle text files with proportional fonts? I hate reading monospace fonts.

Thanks for any comments.
