Pretty cool idea, not sure about ready an entire book on the Blackberry screen though, but then again..it’s not like the iPhone is any better. Either way, it might work since Blackberry users are use to the small screen.
Only available in the US. I downloaded it and it works fine. No problem with the screen. I use a Storm and have the full screen which I am used to. Had a Palm TX previously which has the same size screen and will never buy a dedicated reader since they won’t fit in a pocket. Font size is also adjustable.
