Apart from that, it doesn't even correctly sync the eBook info to the Cybook (or an SD card, for that matter). Title, Author and other details I entered are somehow reset when the book is copied over. Add the stupid folderless interface of the Cybook and what you get is a perfect mess.
The metadata problem is not unique to the Apple emulation. MobiPocket places the changes in a side file that accompanies the main file but Cybook does not use this data but instead opens the original file for this.

As does, I believe, every other version of the Mobi reader. Changes that you make to the metadata in the Mobi desktop reader are unique to that platform - the other versions all use the metadata in the original file.

Tompe's "mobi2mobi" tool can be used to easily view or edit the metadata in a Mobi book.
