I wonder where that came from.

Just to weigh in I have a similar issue with some epub books. The two I got from FictionWise both fail, and indeed these are over 2mb. I bought the latest Jack Reacher from WHSmug (bloody expensive) and it is a more normal size and worked fine. AFAIK mine is not the oldest model 500mb internal?

My workaround for the two failing books was to convert them in calibre to pdf (not ideal as the font is too small), having first liberated them from drm hell.
