is LRF readable on the T1?
I've owned most models of Sony readers from PRS-500 to 950, so all my books are in LRF format (all non-DRM).

But apparently the new T1 model does not support LRF at all - is that definitely confirmed?

It will be annoying if I'm forced to convert all my books to EPUB format now I preferred the look of LRF documents. Has Sony at least fixed the right-justification problem in their EPUB software?

I had a lot of LRF books - Calibre did a decent job of automatic conversion on them, so you might want to try that and see if you're happy with the results.

Regards,

If any of your LRF books were purchased through the Sony Store, you can re-download them as EPUB.

On my PRS-505, I preferred LRF over epub too. However, about a year ago I could see which way the wind was blowing, so started getting all epubs for my reader. As others said, Calibre converts easily enough.

By "fixed" do you mean the user has a choice, or do you mean is it now "broken" for those of us who prefer ragged right?

Neither. The newer Sonys honour whatever css is in each epub. So if it says
text-align: justify - you get straight right edge
text-align: left - you get ragged right edge
and if there is no text-align statement at all it defaults to text-align: left.

This is true of my PRS-950 and I believe your PRS-650 too.

I can confirm that the PRS 650 obeys alignment is in the CSS.
