Agreed, but:
- ePUB looks promising, but is not really finished yet... (both on the CyBook and as a format)
- From a readers point of view everything's fine with Mobi. All the books work, there's lots of features (adjustable fonts/sizes/etc., justification, dictionary support) + there's a tool to convert most other formats and even one to create books yourself. All other things have some kind of academical nature - I enjoy drinking Coke without exactly knowing what's inside...
- DRM has never and will never "work", it's the disease...
