Will the set of supported eBook formats expand for the Cybook Gen 3?

It is said that one of the upcoming firmware releases will support ePub, but I'm not sure...

Anyone heard something more about this? Can it be confirmed that ePub will be supported in a future firmware release?

This will presumably be DRM-free ePub, since MobiPocket is still asking for DRM exclusivity.

And how about reflow text PDF’s?
Any intentions in that direction?

How would this be implemented? Reflowing the PDF inside the Cybook would be computationally intensive.

The new Sony firmware has made this available to their device (PRS 505).

So it can be made available to a device with the same screen size and similar hardware capabilities as the Cybook.

Any PDF in which the content is stored as text, but it can be rather slow per-page.
