First, thanks to the developers! I was badly missing an e-book reader in my N900.
As soon as I saw it today, I promptly installed the fresh new (1/1/2010) version of FBReader for the N900, but I couldn't find how to change the fonts or font sizes?
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

EDIT:
Found it! I couldn't see the whole preference options. You have to click on the left and right to scroll horizontally! Now, to read!

I would guess the promoted to extras overnight. I'm busy downloading a shelf-full of books right now!

FBReadersupports many formats. If you already have the .prc files, push them onto your N900 and then you should be able to add each onto the the library individually. Or download the in MobiPocket format, which has worked nicely for me.

Unsupported compression method means "hey, however they put this file together, I don't understand it!"

www.gutenberg.org has some files in German; I don't know how many. Several formats it carries are supported by FBreader. My favorite is the .epub format. I don't know German, so I don't know the German ebook sites, but I'm sure there are lots of them.
