As of right now, Calibre is a better epub building tool than InDesign. <plug>

Sure, you can try to justify the expense of CS3/4 and invoke apologetics for its shortcomings as all being user error and user misunderstanding of how to do it, but the truth is, that Adobe's first-run implementation of epub creation is non-intuitive, clumsy, and frustrating. Not altogether different from Quark's first run with .lit creation, which never got better.

When the make-a-gazillion-dollars-with-ebooks awareness gets higher up onto Adobe's (or Quark's) radar, things might get better. Until then, us lesser mortals will find better solutions, like.......(shall I say it again?).........
