If not, then this is how it goes: if you have a PC, and haven't installed office on it, you can't read doc files. It is the same way that you need software for pdf files, epub files, mobi files, djvu files, mp3 files, avi files, you know, ALL files.

But I am curios to know which piece of hardware you think is missing from the nook, sony, etc, that keeps them from reading mobi files.
I said that because on PCs or computers we have the ability to reinstall or change the operating system but on eink devices that's not so easy, not for the regular user. And doing it, voids the warranty anyway. Not the same on a PC. So you buy an eink device and you basically have to use and accept the format it natively reads .
