The MobiPocket Reader for BlackBerry is most likely never going to come out of beta, since MobiPocket appears to exist now in name only. The bottom line is that if a MobiPocket app works for you there is no reason not to continue to use it, but expect issues migrating to new devices.
The MobiPocket app lives on in part as "Kindle for BlackBerry", also in beta but likely to have a future. The Kindle apps are typically much simplified relative to their MobiPocket parent, and I don't know how easy it is to read your own DRM-free MOBIs.
Something I forgot to mention in an earlier post is that B&N Reader for BlackBerry is likely to get ePub support at some point. B&N's ePub migration path is non-transparent, but if they want to stop providing eReader files they have to get all their apps to support ePub.
