The Mod now supports downloading books e.g. from calibre content server or forum attachments. Downloads can be stored on SD card only, in a folder called "download" which has to be created by you beforehand. Downloads run in parallel in background, there is no visible progress or other feedback. You'll just have to check what / whether something appears in the download folder. Downloads will be cancelled when the reader goes into standby.

Please note that the download functionality is rather limited in nature (only http and ftp, no https, no login), and it does not check what type or size of file you are downloading, or if there's enough room on the SD card to store it. It should work for most simple ebook downloads, just don't try to download huge files with it that do not belong on an ereader.
