Right now, the Hanlin V3 only directly supports a few basic non-drm formats and its own special one. And the DRM'd format support won't happen right away. However, Open Inkpot is working on creating a complete package of operating system (OI - a distribution of Linux), bookshelf/library manager (Madshelf) and ebook reader app (FBReader). Now FBReader reads a lot of ebook formats, including html, chm, txt, rtf, and non-DRM'd mobipocket - but it doesn't support any DRM'd format at this time. Still, it's not too difficult to buy-and-convert DRM'd titles to non-DRM.
