I'm so happy they improved the progress bar-- makes things much more easier to understand and see how far I'm into a book. And the other new features/improvements make Stanza much more comfortable for me to read books on (more like the eReader app, actually), so I'm glad for them, too. Yay!

Just updated Stanza and the new version is looking very nice. It even has a dictionary now. Interface seems to be much improved and loads much faster now. :)

now if they can update their online catalog... the suvudu free library needs some updating for at least 4 books... I kinda like their epub format.
