I only ask because I'm doing the opposite of all of you and I convert all of my TXT, DOC, HTM, and PDB files into LIT files.

2 Things.
1) I keep lots and lots of ebooks on my PDA. I don't convert anything since uBook will read all of the formats (TXT, HTML, RTF, etc) without forcing me to do anthing.
2) MS Reader does a very good job of making the screen look like a paper book; nice wide margins, big headers and footers, etc. Unfortunatly, I am not reading a paper book. I don't need margins, headers, footers or any of those things. Plus, even the smallest fonts are too big. I like to have more control over what goes on the screen. I find that reading a book on msreader puts a lot of dead space on the screen, and I end up having to do a lot more page turning.
