Morpheus has a helpful post in MobileRead, summing up the converters available for the Librie–including FlatLrf, which lets you download Web pages. Also see a post by Alexander summing up other resources, such as Sony programs to read newspapers, Word, Excel and PDF, as well as RSS feeds. Now if only Sony can lower the price, still US$489, and bundle in Mobipocket.

Reminder: Mobipocket is hardly the ultimate e-book-reading program, especially for heavy-duty apps such as scientific and technical books. But it beat alternatives such as Adobe and Microsoft Reader, and is something to consider for the here and now.
