We probably should ask Jon to qualify these statements. Which device don't they work on and how it doesn't work. For example, the last time I tried them on my Kobo, the books displayed perfectly. But, searching for a word was interesting. If you selected a word, it would be found in the book. But, if you typed the word in, it wasn't found because of the soft hyphens.

Jon's statement is probably correct, but it feels like it is so imprecise that it isn't particularly useful.
