JPEG images (with or without SVG wrapper) are correctly displayed, while PNG images are not displayed at all. This holds true for both EPUB 2 and EPUB 3 files. Renaming the same file to .kepub "solves" the problem, that is, the PNG images are displayed again...
I noticed this last night but due to lateness I forgot to add it to the cons list. I had a book I was testing and was using a PNG cover, I had to convert it to jpg to get it to display. So you are correct in that PNG files do not work in epubs with the new firmware.
