Well I have a BB Storm and have been able to read MOBI, eReader, B&N eReader, for close to a year. I can tell you it is a pain to have to switch between apps just to read a book. Or have to download books from different stores as well as managing accounts from different stores.

At one point I had all these apps on my phone, but have since removed all but one, MobiPocket. Now I only deal with the MOBI format.
