One of the things that I think confuses people is that there are what I think of as two "flavors" of MOBI; there's the MOBI container and the MOBI format. What I'm calling the MOBI format is the very old MobiPocket format, which is essentially the version of HTML before there was CSS. The MOBI container can contain a book in multiple formats and can contain it both in the old MobiPocket format as well as in the newer format that uses CSS; convenient for Amazon so that one file works on very old Kindles as well as the newer ones. So don't be dismayed when you see that the ebook has a .mobi extension; it's just a container.
