I just upgraded your first Zim to 0.48 .

It seems to have about the same features as (the free version of) Notecase,
which is good.
And I definitely prefer Zim's way of storage to Notecase's single file!

A bug? :
Deleted "root-" (but not "leaf-") pages seem to be remembered as icons by the Zim window,
even after a quit and restart.
But I can't find the file referring to them.
I couldn't recreate the bug. May be some link hidden somewhere. Otherwise, if you can create an example notebook, file a bug report in zim's bugtracker.

Question :
I would like to import contents from web pages with at least some formatting kept.
Is this possible?

The only way I found, was to make a file attachment
with the web page stored in Zim's folder.

( Even so Zim may be a better tool to organize information collected from the web
than just a structure of folders. )
I don't think it is possible, at least in maemo devices, with copy/paste because the clipboard stores just plain text. If the clipboard would keep rich text, it could be possible to write a custom tool or to modify the quick note plugin to translate the formatting, although that could be done anyway for importing a html file
It is not necesary to save the web pages in zim's notebook folder, you can use the structure of folders and link the files in zim's notebook.
