Not sure if there are special vim plugins for epubs, but an epub is basically just a .zip file (and yes you can unzip it in the normal way) containing xhtml files, any associated images, fonts and CSS, and some xml files containing metadata. Should be easy enough to edit those individual files with vim. Not too hard to reverse engineer, but see this thread for links to tutorials and the technical specs, etc.

Sweepea, how do you use a black page with LaTeX?
Put this in the preamble:

\usepackage{xcolor}
\pagecolor{black} % sets background color of whole document
\color{white} % sets color of the text

Could you give me an example? I want to try that and narrow down the size of nook's screen.
I'm pretty sure the Nook's screen is indeed 9cm x 12cm. Yes, it looks small on the computer.
