SVG though, is already included in the standard, and it's fairly easy to export formulas in SVG.

So, ePub is the format of choice for scientific ebooks? Let's hope we get a pretty complete implementation on the cybook, then. And some nice science textbooks.
On second thought, and slightly off topic (sorry for highjacking), shouldn't it be possible to patch together some kind of converter from PDF to ePub with some notice to formulas? Hm... given some time, which is not probable to happen in, oh, another two years, I might have a look.

Well, it could actually be the question to the answer to life, the universe and everything
