Best format for 505
Hey everyone. I'm going to by a new book from Books on Board, and the book only comes in ePub, Adobe Digital Edition, Microsoft Reader, MobiPocket(OD), and eReader. My question is twofold, first, is eReader for the Sony...the .lrf file, and secondly if not, which would be the best format for my Sony? I'm gonna fork over $20 bucks so I don't want to mess up. All of the formats are DRM'd...

Thanks for any suggestions!

Dave

ePub would be what you want. eReader is a mess of a format and is not compatible with the the Sony.

I like ePub as well. It provides faster font resizing on the 505 and "should" be the most future proof.

I agree epub is best, but if you can't get a book in epub, Adobe Digital Additions will work on your Sony.
