Mobipocket adds BlackBerry Storm and Bold support

Mobipocket Reader 6.0 for BlackBerry - Beta build 80 has just been released. It adds support for BlackBerry Storm and Bold. Explicit support for the Storm, in particular, has been often requested on the MobiPocket Forums.

Quote:
January 19th, 2009: release of Build 80 beta version

New features:
  • Support of BlackBerry Storm - 9500 phone series.
  • Support of BlackBerry Bold - 9000 phone series.

Bug fixes:
  • Fix of a crash during over the air eBook download.
  • Fix of some sub-menus which were not displayed on some BlackBerry devices (e.g. annotations sub-menu).

Known issues:
  • Annotations are not synchronized when eBooks are sent from the desktop reader to BlackBerry devices. We suggest you download eBooks from the Over The Air store.
  • Search feature doesn't highlight results in the text.

Awesome thanks wallcraft! I'm downloading it now. I just hope it takes advantage of the Storm UI and is not some hack to get it to mostly work.

NOTE: I had issues with the install. Make sure you completely uninstall both on the Destkop and Storm before installing the Beta or else the update is not properly install (it installs in "compatibility" mode)

I compared the text on the screen vs my SONY 505. About 2 pages of the storm equals one page of the PRS-505.

I've attached screen shots of the BB Storm.

P.S. Is the second image is the technical non-fiction books I'm always reading

Okay actually my daughter and I read together with our electronic book readers

Looks promising, someone needs to fill out the capabilities of this new version on the mobi comparison page in the wiki.

Do you have a link to the WIKI page. The only BlackBerry page I was about RIM?

I also added two rows to the Library. Wireless Bookstore and Wireless Download

For those familiar with the other devices they might want to update the entry. I've already answered Yes for the Kindle
