In my experience with Hachette books, the kobo readers do not display the EPUB3
files (mybe not docbook's, but generaly speaking)
So we got back to epub2
I have the IDPF test files that I run from time to time on the IPAD, the
closest EPUB3 compatible mobile reader, and a lot files are rejected ("unknown
format.....").
My 2 cents
If you want you can send me some files, I will test them on IPAD and MOBO.
