There are a couple of tools: Calibre is probably the one that most forum members are using.
Alternatively, Feedbooks has an online converter.

You do know that the Sony will read RTF format without any conversion?

I read almost all my books in RTF.

Takes a little time to format when first opening the file but for me it's outweighed by the fact that I can edit the file directly when my reader mounts as an external drive on almost any device.

I second Patricia: Calibre.

I downloaded a book today to my 505 in rtf format
and it "crashed" when I clicked button to open that
book. It just got "stuck".. didn't open book and pressing
the buttons did nothing.

I had to do a soft reset then I deleted that book using
calibre.

I used calibre to change format to LRF and that was fine.

I don't know why the rtf format caused problems... weird.
