That's not true. Mobipocket splits at the emdash. (I think. I'm not entirely sure how an emdash is different from a hyphen.) For instance:

word-word-word-word-word-word-word-word-word-word-word

will appear on the page as:

word-
word-
word-
word-
word-
word-word-word-word-word-word

if 30 characters is the width of the screen.
