From what I gather, the Opus will ship with the ePub firmware. And once people have purchased ePub eBooks or converted to ePub and have a collection of eBooks in ePub, will they really want Mobipocket firmware? I doubt it. So wny not just stick to ePub and just let Mobipocket drift away?

Because some people might decide not to buy it until that second firmware is out. The complete lack of mobipocket is a reason for me not to buy it.

Is it ethical???
What does a guy who already own a Cybook does ????
DeDRM all his mobipocket books that he legally paid for and then convert them to ePub ????? Does he still feel like a good citizen ???? I think I would... Is there a place where one can buy all the latest books in ePub ??? Regards, Georges |

The inclusion of ADE/ePub is a good reason to consider it if you want a 5" screen. The lack of Mobipocket is a good thing.

It will be able to do mobipocket as the Gen3 will. They will release a Mobipocket firmware, it just not ready, but it will come really soon.
