Need tutorial on ebook formats

I'm new to ebooks and need to know a little about the various formats. I suspect there's alread a FAQ or something here to that effect. If you can point me to that item, I'd be most grateful.

If you have any further questions, just ask.
Somebody will pop in.

The only formats you need concern yourself about are Mobipocket (used by the Kindle) and ePub (used by everything else). That's basically it.
