Parts of the page can be updated leaving the rest. However, this is used relatively infrequently on most devices (its relatively slow and can cause ghosting). The
Epson and E-Ink developed advanced display controller is not in any actual devices yet, but it may allow more efficient partial updates.
If you want to edit the contents, then the only option is to explode the MOBI back into HTML with either MobiPerl (mobi2html) or Calibre (mobi2oeb). However, it is usually better to get the original source because typically at least some information is lost in the original conversion to MOBI.
