This is the first I've heard about cbz, cbr, rtf, html and txt being supported on the device. Is this native support? Has anyone tried these out?
Can't speak for the Touch, but on the Wifi model...

CBZ/CBR: Support is native. The files show up in the Documents section. Images are auto-fit/oriented to make the most of the screen. No manual zooming/rotating. (Hopefully on the Touch it uses something more like the PDF UI. Anyone tried it yet?)
HTML: It's weird; What's displayed is neither raw code nor properly-formatted webpage. Again, this might be improved on the Touch.
TXT: Some dash characters don't show up, but otherwise it works AFAICT.
