Hellmark · 12-04-2009, 12:42 AM

So far I've seen ereader and mobipocket software, but nothing with epub support. Anyone know of something?

Not very pretty synching but:

1) I use caliber to keep my ebooks organized
2) Convert to mobi version in a sep dir
3) Sync my mobireader to that dir
4) Sync my BB to mobireader...

I'm looking for the same. I use Mobipocket Reader, which is nice, but requires a conversion. What a Tower of Babel we have here!

The B&N Reader for iPhone has just added ePub support. It is probably coming for its BlackBerry app too, because otherwise they won't be able to sync ebooks between device types. I don't know if this will allow you to access your own DRM-free ePubs as well as B&N's ePubs.

I'm looking for the same thing, but I have tired of the lack of improvement of the software and the long load time anytime I use it. The fact that I have to wait a minute to get to a book and to leave the book for any reason you have to face the same load time again is extremely annoying. I guess i have to wait for Kindle to finally get off their a$$ and embrace blackberry.
