Might be a good idea. However, think for a minute... Bookeen already *has* the information for Mobipocket's format, legally. And they've already made their internal reader capable of opening and displaying Secure Mobipocket ebooks. What's to prevent them from making a Linux Desktop version MobiReader? Or for that matter, a Mac OS/X version?

Bookeen, are you listening???
