You used mobidedrm.py -- even though you named the file with a .pdb extension, that program doesn't create an ereader file, it strips the DRM from a Mobipocket file -- which is what you bought from Mobipocket.

You can read the book with the Mobipocket reader, or you can use the mobi2html program (from Mobiperl) to turn the newly-unprotected Mobipocket book into HTML, which you can then convert to iSilo (using iSiloX) if you like.
