Ummm.... one of the two renderers in the current Kobo firmware is already epub3 -- the ACCESS renderer used for .kepub.epub books. The other renderer (RMSDK) is moving in the direction of epub3 compatibility and by the time I can actually borrow an epub3 book from the local library consortium, it is likely to be there.
