In order to render two files without a pagebreak, the reader should be able to process two files (or more, as there could be many files fitting in a single page) simultaneously and display them on the same screen. I'm sure that's not impossible, but I'd say it's not trivial and I don't think that'll happen in the near future.

Given that Adobe-based readers still add spurious pagebreaks in the middle of long paragraphs (and in the middle of the screen), attempting to create a "continuous" text seems rather futile anyway.

What could change is this:

Quote:
Large amount of text -- way more than epub can handle as a single html file
There's no fundamental limit in what ePub can handle. With enough memory, and a reader that does not add its own limitations, you could have HTML files as long as you want.
