Just because an ereader offers support for a format does not mean it is the best solution. Frankly I would rather see support for formats like mobi, CBR, cbz removed from the lobos and them left as a pure ePub / kEpub device.
I guess that's not the point here where the issue is that the device does take so long to just start up that, as a user, you're not even able to get to the point where you might notice that an erader as such could be bettered by something like a tablet.

And I keep saying that it is not too much to ask from KOBO that the device at least lets you chose and open any file of the supported formats from any of the supported media.
