This is by far the most popular e-reader for the N900, dead simple to use and supporting a wide variety of formats. One not-so-obvious feature is that it is being actively supported and improvement requests are promptly considered. [Rate: 9/10]

So difficult to use. Not user friendly at all. It is difficult to move pages. It does not even have book marks... Finally I uninstalled it... [Rate: 1/10]

Why it is so difficult to tap the finger to move pages?. I have spent so much time with preferences, the web, etc... The apps should be ease- and friendly, the touch interaction is a must! [No rate]

An essential app, for you literate types ;-) So highly customizeable! I like to change the color and brightness of the background to about paper-white, set font to a serif, size 26, and increase linespacing to 1.3. Add in the already incredible sharpness of the N900's screen resolution, and you have an almost fatigue-free way to read e-books - almost like paper! Project Gutenburg FTW! [Rate: 9/10]

Definitely a must have. This and Comix make my N900 more than useful. Reads prc files from my trusted old iPAQ's mobipocket reader. Recommended. [Rate: 9/10]
