All my files are DRM-free. That's why I used the term .prc versus Mobipocket. What DRM books I buy, and that is very few, I make them DRM-free immediately.
Though the EZ Reader does handle Html, it is not great. I tried a few when I first got mine.
Here are some notes I made on these format from my original evaluation of the EZ Reader:
