ebook reader

Hey I am looking for a good ebook reader. Basically I have tons of ebooks in txt format (from projekt gutenberg) and some pdf ones. Right now I am using a purchased version of Repligo to convert it and view it on my pda, the viewer is really really nice... now I want to switch to an macbook and wanted to ask the comunity if there's a better way like an comfortable txt viewer? I'm aware of XPDF for PDF files which is nice but kind of not that comfortable to read books
THX in advance

uBook was a very good I used to use, but I just convert the txt or html files into Microsoft LIT format now and use their reader.
Not sure if uBook is still free though.

i'm using isilo & isiloX for converting to pdb/prc i like it. i was risen on mpx2oo,& it was 1st ebook reader i found. other readers i know:haali,ubook as alanjc,mobipocket.

i have a freeware frontend gui which use ms lit encoder to make just about any format into lit books which can be used in ms ebook reader on pocketpc's
can post then name when i get hold of it

Haali Reader is great
Thx for the hints. The Haali Reader link
is really great

ebook reader

Hi all.
Ive been looking around, but I cant seem to find any good ebookreader to my vox.
The integrated adobe reader - lite, sucs for reading pdf files, as it cant rearrange the text, and word isnt any real alternative.
Do you know any god ones, and what formats does it take, freeware etc?
Greetings.

Haven't really tried any of these, but these 2 came with the ROM I use:
Microsoft LIT Reader
CHM ebook Reader 2.5

For PDF files no Windows Smartphone reader is perfect, but this included in Documents To Go is the best among them. It is the only one that word wraps the PDF text, so you can read the book without scrolling around.
Unfortunately, there is no PDF reader that can reflow your document like Adobe Acrobat Reader for Pocket PC, but the Word Wrap mode of Documents To Go PDF Reader is pretty close.

For non-technical literature i advised AlReader 2 (freeware)
This programm works with TXT, HTML, RTF, DOC, FB2, PDB/PRC (PalmDOC, zTXT mode 1), TCR
PDF is unsupported

And what about MobiPocketReader ?

AlReader 2.
I simply cant find it in an english version. You have one?
Is moby pocket reader good?
Thanks for your replys.

You have to try yourself.
It's free, with PC/PPC/SP client with few format convertion.

Yes, Alreader2 is the best reader ever, with the russian menus even. ;-)
With a reader like this for the iPhone, maybe I let my Vox at home.

A new solution for ebooks on smartphone....giv it a try!
hi there....i suffered from this kind of problem....i had over 3000 ebooks in .lit format....my idea is this. use isilo v4.36 for smartphone....if u are really interested i'll put it up here.....
there is a freeware called amberlit .lit converter available. my advice is, do a batch conversion of .lit files, then use isilo on ur mobile. mine too is a htc s710....my novels are great/ pm me....i hav the full working version.
try and njoy!

[Q] Reader app

Hey guys just wondering if there's anyway to add pdfs to the reader app as I have e-books in PDF format, and i want them to show on MyShelf, and run in the reader app. Any way to do this?
Cheers

download calibre and then convert them

Thanks buddy =)

Ebook for note 10.1

what ebook format should I get to be able to work with the S-pen (Kindle , epub , pdf ) ?
Anybody know where can I get pdf ebook ?

I would always lean toward epub, I haven't investigated drm ebooks on here yet, but all the ebooks I have I convert to epub to read with fbreader (on both android for all tablet phone and book reader)
edit;
my book reader isn't android, but does have fbreader.
I use calibre on win and Linux PC's to convert formats
I use epub instead of pdf as it is easier to reflow text for various screen sizes and screen rotate

Calibre cannot translate the Snotes .snb format and i haven't found anything that can. It is an obscure format. I wonder why Samsung used it other than to force people to have their devices to read it.

If you want an ebook to use with the S-Pen I suggest you go for PDF format. As far as I know there are no ebook readers (Apps) that allow marking up epub or mobi files. If you use pdf there are several apps that allow for marking up pdf files with the pen,

Ez pdf reader will open pdf files and when you select the pen at the top it will ask you if you want to copy the file for making annotations and then on that copy you can write what you want with the s pen. BTW the copy will show up in the library shelf when you open Ez pdf reader.

What kind of E-book readers suppor .epub and .mobi formats?

Kindle(which versions),Ipad,Nexus,Samsung tab etc..?

Well, most readers support epub and for the mobi format I sugguest you use the ebook manager 'Calibre' (Freeware). This programm can convert mobi format into the format you prefer.
I personally use the pocketbook touch (622) ebook reader it seems to support epub (for sure) and prc(mobi) (not tested myself yet).

Nook as well

I have a Kindle that I received as a gift - but I use Calibre and it auto-converts epub to mobi without me having to do anything. Great for laziness and not using braaaiiiiins.
