The manual preloaded on the 885/Weltbild Cybook is in ePub format.

In section 4.2 The Library Contextual Menu it states the following:
Hide eBooks: hide all eBook files (ePub, PDF, PRC, PDB, HTM, TXT)
So there's hope that the final version of the 1.4 firmware will support both ePub AND Mobi (I don't care about DRM in either, as the first thing I do when I buy a DRMed eBook is to strip the DRM of it - that's legal in Switzerland).

Section 5.3 explains Adobe Digital Editions and how to acitvate the Cybook for use with it.

Section 5.4 explains the Mobipocket Desktop Reader. DRM is mentioned also.

Section 6.1 lists the supported file formats. ePub and Mobi are mentioned.


My Cybook with version 885 does not read Mobi, HTML and TXT.

Hope this sheds some light upon this topic.
