Borders.com seems to offer 3 types of ebooks: ePUB, PDF, and mobile.

Does anyone know if I have a Sony 650 and buy a book that only has "mobile" file type from Borders, would my 650 be able to read it?

My guess is probably not but would like to confirm it.

Also anyone knows what readers can read the Borders "mobile" file type (other than their own iPhone/iPad app)? Kobo reader?

Thank you very much
