i have some books in text format, and your view page looks beautiful, so i am wondering if it can read text files.

Not yet but I'm going to use standalone Calibre tool 'ebook-convert' that allows me to convert a lot of other formats into epub, including TXT files. So in general they should work too as far as the converter works but converting waits for when all other stuff for 1.0 is cleared as sort of "cherry on top" when I know other epub stuff works fine.

It sort of does now. I plan to include txt, non-drm mobi, html native support since I just learned that ebook-convert is inseparable from Calibre and can't be used and installed as standalone tool. But since importing works now I'm going to close it for 1.0 milestone.
