    Don't Get Too Used To Epub (version 2 that is)

Posted at 8:00AM Monday 13 Jun 2011

EPub is still a superb tool if all you want to do is read -- or publish 
- an e-book in English or another western tongue. But what if your 
native language is Chinese or Japanese or Arabic or Hebrew? EPub is not 
up to the task of handling symbols and pictograms or languages written 
up and down or right to left.

'...Or what if you want to "read" a vook or an app replete with videos, 
music and other enhancements? The ePub format is simply inadequate to 
the challenge of creating these complex multimedia works....'
