To be fair, the default EPUB reader is AdobeViewer, and that displays the books well, as far as I can tell. I realize that there are problems with using the dictionary with it, but that doesn't mean that it "can not read this format". I use it all the time to read my technical books and am happy with it. Your anger over the dictionary bug is causing you to be overly harsh in your descriptions of the device. By all means, point out the problems with using the dictionary, but don't make it sound like no one else will be able to read a technical EPUB with the device, because it isn't true.
