Epubs are the hot thing these days and the least appropriate way to make a textbook. Textbooks rely on indexes (indices?) so everyone can look at the same page, on graphics being on a certain page, etc, etc. Happens only on an epub by loading it up with links that slow it down.

Many tablets and readers can do pdfs so what is the freaking deal with having them be epubs?????

As you said, you can not put a 8/5 x 11 page into a 3" screen size without losing something. I guess you meet a lot of people so open minded you can hear the wind whistle through their ears! I can watch movies on my mp3 player but I don't expect the same experience as even my portable DVD player or 32" TV.
