Some more EZ-Reader questions

So after putting it off for quite awhile I finally broke down and ordered an EZ-Reader from Frys.com. I realize that points I'm going to raise have been discussed before but I'm looking for just a little clarification. So if anyone sees anything wrong with the statements below would you correct me.

1. Basically no matter what format the book is in and no matter what firmware or reading software you are using when it is displayed on the reader there is very little formating of the text. Css and many html tags aren't supported.

2. When attached to the USB cable you can mount and access both the internal memory and the sd card as seperate drives.

3. Limited pdf support from any of available firmwares. This one is pretty low on my list as I think I have a total of about 15 or so pdf books mostly reference.

4. Decent support from Astak, as its the EZ-Reader that I'm getting.

5. Open Inkpot or the lbook firmware seems to be the way to go as far as firmware is concerned.

To finish up here's an outright question. I have many books that I've converted to imp format, but I still have the original files and the html used to convert to imp. Which supported format on the EZ-Reader seems to be the best, and does it really matter with the limited support of text formating? Mobi, epub, straight html?
