I think I read about another non-Amazon reader that is CSS3 enabled.

The problem is that very few people are currently using these devices.

That's for Textbook format--Print Replica. The antithesis of reflowable eBooks. It has pretty much nothing to do with ePUB specifications. you might want to read up on the ePUB3.0 specs, for CSS, here: http://www.idpf.org/epub/30/spec/epu...ec-css-profile

As you see, they're still talking about CSS 2.1. The only CSS3 specifications being addressed are from the speech modules, some font specs (not sure why, when I read what they're using) and a handful--a handful--of layout elements, like line-break, line-last, etc.

They are saying, in the spec, that they're supporting multi-column but I haven't seen ANYTHING support CSSMulti-Column. Nothing. I don't even think that Readium or Azardi does, but they might.

Which is kinda useless. They're nice readers--but they're not sales platforms, are they?

So, is it that you have a specific need for actual bootstrapped columns, rather than using tables, or are you just bored and looking for some trouble to keep you busy? :-)
