My first EPub book, looks weird

So you agree with me. Assuming the T-1 works as well as the 650 then your book will look fine on the T-1 as well.

The omission of a way for the user to set justification and font family are one of the few faults with Sony.

Again you agree that it is a feature of the T-1 to view the ePub as designed. Your only disagreement is you think the feature set of the T-1 should be expanded to allow the user to manually override the ePub, which is certainly a good suggestion, but not a bug.

Experimenting with a few more ePubs since my first post about full justification, I'm finding that now mostly they do appear fully justified on my T1; it just happened to be the very first one I bought that appeared only left justified, and the first dozen or so lines of this ePub are actually centred! (And no, they're not supposed to be). But I now have several other ebooks which are appearing just fine, so mainly it seems to depend on the publisher's skill at correctly formatting their ebooks.

That's exactly it as others have said.
