Great, I thought - an O'Reilly book at 50% off - yep I bought it.

But - Kobo has recently changed it's Aus site to the 'new' look Kobo website and I didn't realise that I was buying a kepub ebook.

I didn't get a choice - and nor do you know it's format even after purchase!!!

Yep, it can only be viewed on the Kobo desktop or on a device - NO epub version offered.

Yucko

So - beware, or caveat emptor as they say in the classics!!

Cough.... Comments at Apprentice Alf's blog.

[EDIT: I see that this has already been covered.]
