It installs from ubuntu repositories, so it is not available in application manager. It might be necessary to configure by hand full screen/rotate/next page/prev page, but you get the same functionality as hildonized fbreader. Similar situation is for evince.

For mplayer, it might be best to apt-get install mplayer, but then copy mplayer binary and two modules s3c_mfc.ko and s3c_pp.ko from original image. This version uses hardware video acceleration so it can play higher quality videos.
My apt-get tests
Fbreader works - enter key to fullscreen (i will look into key on this weekend)
cbrpager works - but the icons build a tower in the middle of the screen and leave very little space for the pics -should be fixable...
mplayer - No releases for mplayer in jaunty armel have yet been published.
gxine - error with libglu1-mesa (a think it was) on test build 2 (0.14) a will try again on test b7
vlc - just to big (couldnt -f install vlc) after installing mer was broken - could have been "-f remove gxine" if a cant get xine to work a will try vlc again
evince - installed and opened .cdr (rar comics) i played around and a got a error (perhaps doing a little much at the same time - trying to install things and...)
some small things like unrar was easy to install - only hardware intensive apps like videoplayer gave me problem - so - just look at launchpad

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/armel

and see if you find something you would like to try to install (sudo apt-get install *apps*)

a question:
has anybody any experience of libswfdec or gnash?
could you get youtube and other flash sites to work - i like to get my swedish tv site to work - it would be great to have this small device to catch up on the news...
