I have a new question:
I've seen that a few e-readers are able to read .rar and .zip format. I was wondering, what formats can be put in those compressed archives? And how do the various readers behave with them?

What I mean is:
I assume that if an eReader is compatible with PDFs and DOCs, I can put a PDF in a RAR, or a DOC in a ZIP and my eReader will read it correctly. Is this always true with any eReader?
But, should I place for example two or three DOCs in one RAR, how will the eReaders treat them? Will I see three books in the library, or only one archive? and when I select the archive, will I be able to choose which one of the three to read?
And what if I place several ebooks of several format in one archive only (for example a PDF, a MOBI and a DOC in a single ZIP)?
Finally, if I place several JPEGs in an archive (as is the case of CBR and CBZ archives), how do the eReaders behave?
