eReader for Android released →

Although they are now part of Barnes & Noble, which is supposed to ship the Nook soon, the eReader guys must struggle to remain relevant.

They just released an Android version that according to the FAQ, allows you to:

  • Connect to eReader.com or Fictionwise.com bookshelf for wireless download. Optional automatic download of new purchases.
  • Basic reading features: forward page, back page, table of contents, change font size, landscape vs. portrait rotation views. Compatible with all eReader (PDB) content.
  • Advanced reading features: bookmarks, highlights, notes, dictionary lookup when a compatible dictionary is installed.

I was a big eReader user in college. Maybe my eyesight was better because I used to love reading on my Zire 71, Tungsten T3 and Tapwave Zodiac.

The current advantage eReader has is all the platforms its software runs on: Android, Blackberry, Symbian, Windows, Mac, etc.
