The delay on the Blackberry (Bold), although understandable from the above explanation, is very frustrating for us. I bought the IPod Touch, which is excellent, to keep reading but don't always have it with me. Please HURRY with teh BB version.

I've moved over to BlackBerry and I am really looking forward to the BlackBerry version. I check my Ereader email faithfully every time it is sent to me, so I hope that the coders have a lot of success and we can see the beta soon. Mobipocket just doesn't work on all PDB books, so Ereader is a must for me. Once the new version is out, I'll return to buying my books from Ereader.com.

For at least a couple of years, eReader looked to become the next Microsoft Reader--a useful multiplatform reading application that was dead in the water. As several TeleRead regulars have noted, it's important that formats have legs--so we can move our books to whatever new devices we purchase.
