Since the last update, the Hanlin V3 supports ePub (BeBook is a rebranded version of that device). Don't know about the current BeBook firmware, but anyway, it should work one way or another.

I wonder if it's chm support is the same as Netronix's chm support - first you explode into html files, then you convert to .txt files, finally you run through the .stk ebook maker. I *hope* BeBook isn't as dishonest as Netronix is about the ebook formats supported. (Of course, now that the EB610 and above are running WinCE 5.0, that may well change.)
