What's happened to azw2 and azw3?
Could one of them be intended for some weird ePub based format?
The extensions are actually platform-specific. If you download a Topaz file in Kindle for PC, it will have a ".azw" extension. Since all these are just renamed PRC files, the actual contents of the file are identified by the "tag" within the PRC.
