And much as I wish iRex would support these formats on the iLiad, they wouldn't be enough. Here's hoping Bookeen or the iPhone pick up support for these two formats.
To be honest, I if Astek is really going to be selling readers in places like Walmart, then they are the ones who need to support Abode DE as they'll get more of a presence to the general public then Bookeen.

Right-- but they own publishing arms for those media. In the case of books, they've been re-packaging content provided by other publishers. (Or am I mixed up about what Sony publishes in terms of movies and music as well?)
