FBReader pre-installed on Asus Eee
The Asus Eee PC 4G is due to be released in the US on Nov 1st.

From Eee PC Xandros Linux and AsusLauncher Review at eeeuser.com:
Quote:
eBook takes you to the “My eBooks” folder of File Manager. The file “manual.CHM” comes with the default install, and loads in FBReader.
FBReader supports many DRM-free e-book formats. Linux distros have been relatively slow in including FBReader as a standard application, although it is also now available For Debian testing/unstable users.

The Eee also has Adobe's acroread for PDFs. However, this does not support DRMed Adobe e-books.
