In a step forward for open standards, ECTACO has announced that its jetBook will support EPUB in the first quarter of 2009. Additionally, the jetBook will also support MobiPocket at that time. Fodor’s Travel Guide will also be included as a pre-load on every jetBook. You can find the full press release here.
