Why are companies releasing sub standard programs? You have to ask them. I also find it extremely strange that they have not implemented it better since as you say there are a lot of support available for this.

And to state that the Cybook can read html files ignores the 800-pound-gorilla - that it can't handle external links. This isn't a problem with monolithic html ebooks, but is a real pain-in-the-ass for multi-file html ebooks.
My purpose was just to remind about that since you asked about html in prc files. Event if html was not used in prc files the page number thing should work for html files.
