Would a Sony eReader support this? My other concern is that most Japanese ebooks are in the XMDF format (with a zbf extension). I looked on the eReader matrix wiki and couldn't find this format listed as supported by any of them.... does anyone know anything about this format at all/what supports it?

Neither the ePub nor the Mobipocket format currently support "top to bottom" text. That's why Japanese, Chinese, etc, are conventionally written left-to-right, top-to-bottom, on readers.
