Perhaps publishers are not yet using elements in epub3 that would break these products? or there's a whole bunch of magic I'm not seeing? but none of these products/readers are exploding in my face as I load either of the two books in each one.

(NB I have yet to try them in FBReader, my Android reader of choice, and I actually should do that before I go too crazy blithely buying "epub3" from Kobo.)
If these ePub 3 don't work in FBReader, then it is FBReader that is the problem and not these ePub 3. These ePub 3 are not using anything special.
