SmartQ V7 ebook Reader Program Mobipocket VS Alreader VS Others

Renji · 11-25-2009, 06:23 PM

Hi Guys,
Just wanna get opinions of what people prefer, I'm currently using Alreader however most of my ebooks are in Mobipocket format so kinda a flaw for Alreader. Can anyone tell me which is their best reader with the widest support of formats. Also can anyone tell me which is best software for viewing PDF on Windows CE, got some ebooks in PDF format.

Thanks again guys, really appreciate everyones help on this forum

I tried Alreader (lack of mobipocket support makes it a no-no for me), I tried Ubook, reads a lot of formats, but I don't like its implementation, I couldn't get the highlighting to work and it didn't follow my page breaks. I finally stuck with Mobipocket. It is missing a folder structure, but the reading experience is the best for me. As all my books are in mobipocket (and those few that weren't, I converted) I don't need a tool that reads a lot.

Mobipocket would be good if it actually support the portrait orientation as on the V7 it doesn't which is kinda crappers

I read only in portrait... I have my windows setup in portrait (don't know if the SmartQ has that option or not...) and my orientation in Mobipocket on 90 degrees left.

My favorite is AlReader2, with Mobipocket a close second (for DRM'ed books). uBook just isn't that great for me anymore.
