I don't own one of those devices, but a common theme appears here at MR is 'We know better than you' and Basic EPUB is either not fully implemented or ignores/does wrong some styling.

Jst look at the ADE list down in EPUB forum.
Then there is the Apple flavor of EPUB. The Nook flavor, The Kobo flavor...

Why the EPUB (W3C) group did not require a minimum before someone could label as being 'EPUB'.

There are these requirements in Electronics. USB Must meet certain minimums to bear the USB 2.0 logo. HDMI has standards. BluRay has version standards. IEEE provides lots of industry standards

Why is software still in the standards dark ages after 30 years in the consumer marketplace?
