'-'d after a little conversion it nearly is perfect...a volume is 100% the same dimensions as the cybook...so it's about 85% smaller...which is not bad

What the OP may want to try is renaming/extracting the archives, and possibly try MANGLE - it's the easiest way to rename and read them...
If not mangle then Calibre, but I had not too stunning results with it compared to my own conversion in Photoshop...

If you want to go further and clear up a little bit of space (view wise) on the cybook...you'll then want to put the images into a PDF..in photoshop
This also acts as a bookmark system too, as when you leave the PDF it saves the page you were on...

Select PDF Presentation...highlight all the files (average of 200 for me) save it, with no reduction, jpeg and medium high, and you're all set with a nice PDF about 30 MB
