Unfortunately, it will not let me install it on either my Toshiba Thrive (3.1) or my Comet (2.2). Can any of you install it?

You want that one. Reader for Android. Not Reader for a Sony tablet.

So they came out with an app specifically for their tablet? I guess that means the one released in January will never get an update now. How do you have an app that's still version 1.0 seven months after release knowing there are bugs and lackluster features?

There is no general tablet one. The only one I see is for Sony's branded tablet. I guess that's why it won't install.

It may be for Sony's tablet, but I hope some adventurous person extracts the APK file and posts it some where so those of us with honeycomb tablets can experiment with it.

Oh, I thought you had the file, but it won't install. Sorry.

According to the bottom of the page:

http://ebookstore.sony.com/androidtablet/

It'll be available in December for all Android tablets. Seems like the only thing new it offers is two-page view. The original app has many missing features and there's no mention of them.

sync feature
Hello everyone.

I got Sony Tablet S and enjoy Reader app.
I think Reader app for Sony Tablet is much better than for android!

Because I have a Reader Daily Edition and an android phone too,
this feature sounds very attractive:
"Sync your reading position, bookmarks, and highlights to Reader for Android or Reader Daily Edition"
http://ebookstore.sony.com/androidtablet/

But I could install Reader app for Japanese only from market.
(Japanese ver doesn't this feature)

Does anyone try sync feature?
Can you sync reading position of books not from ReaderStore?

Thank you.

I have a Sony Tablet S. Yes, you can sync sideloaded books with the Reader app for tablets. Doesn't have to be from ReaderStore.

Do you want to try the Reader app (tablet) for English?

The Reader app for phones doesn't allow you to sideload books. You mentioned you have an Android phone.

Try this:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5210431/Reader_OTHER.apk

It installs as a system app on the device. I copied it from /system/app. The name of the file isn't changed.

Thank you.
I successfully installed, but app leads me to the market
and I cannot update to full app.
I think it's a link app.(its size is too small)

Could you use APKoptic(for example) to make an apk?
In my (Japanese) case, APKoptic made a 25.07 Mb apk.

OK, try this one:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5210431/Reader.apk

It's 4.1 Mb, same as file size in the Market.
