  2. Doesn’t work on my HTC Touch Diamond… :(

  3. It works on my Diamond HTC , but only if i install it to main memory.

  4. It works on my iPaq, though italics are rendered as bold text instead. Other than the desire for some margin and spacing control, it seems pretty good. I’m always on the lookout for ePub apps for my PDA, and this one is worth checking out.

  5. (from the developer) For the next version I will fix the problem with installing to the storage card, and the bug with italic srtle. I’ll also be adding better control around margins and spacing. So watch this space …
