I knew it was (essentially) abandoned by Nokia before I bought it a few months ago, but knowing it had easy debian (which I love) I thought what the heck I'll use it to read my epub books and learn a little program. well at that time there was no kindle for android so I had no illusions about reading kindle stuff, but I did think I would have an issue free experience with my oreilly epub collection.
well mebook has a great looking library display but no toc and locks constantly. fbreader has no toc for oreilly (unless you get a non maemo optimized version from them directly) and no scrolling. and on their own toc enabled version there is no swipe to turn page or volume rocker.

Poor thing. I find that I use text search a lot more than a table of contents, but whatever you're in to, I guess.

dorian does not have the nice library display of mebook but it does have working scroll and volume rocker changing...but its toc is just a numerical listing if sections on my oreilly epubs (which is essentially useless) and only even works on some of my collection.
I guess I can pay for an sd card and try kindle on nitdroid? but phone will not work correct? and I will have to reboot just to try what I read in easy debian correct?
I could care less how many games and silly apps were available. and calibre is a fail in easy debian. For a geek phone, how ironic that cant a good read on my geek books, yet they would render nice on android or the hated iphone
It's got me down.
Real down.
