Mobipocket is a file format. There are many places you can get books in the format. There are stores like fictionwise.com, booksonbord.com, etc.

You can also get alot of public domain books from manybooks.net, feedbooks.com and also right here in the eBook forums. Just select Mobi as the file type. Also, many public lending libraries use the Mobi format and DRM.

There are also places like baen if you like Sci-Fi they have tons of stuff, free and for purchase... just get the DRM free Mobipocket format which will work on both CyBook and Kindle.

Even if you get a Kindle, you can read any non-DRMed book that is in the Mobipocket format... also .txt and .html.

Go browse fictionwise.com and see if they have what you like.
