That said, I'm also totally for content creators getting financially rewarded for their hard work. And if I can facilitate that and help that grow, I don't feel bad about charging some money for such a service "up stream" from the end-user. -Micah |

I wouldn't mind paying for an app that would let me read library books on my iPad. I just downloaded the app, so I haven't had much chance to try it out yet. I did notice your themes had Seattle Mist and Ballard Blues, though. Can I infer you are located in Seattle? I'm from Ballard, so it caught my eye! I live in AZ now...got tired of the rain. I have subscribed to this thread, so please post any progress on the library Overdrive subject. Thanks!

Yup Seattle all right. If you look closely at the cover of the user guide, you can see the Seattle skyline. Our offices are in Ballard actually - well, Sunset Hill to be precise.

All I can say in terms of timeline is very soon - as in weeks vs months (we hope). |

To explain, Ballard, where I grew up is a Norwegian fishing community. All my friends spent their summers on a boat fishing. I, (a mongrel mutt) left with no one to hang out with for the summer, read books and tinkered with early digital devices. Funny how rainy places breed computer geeks....

I know! Addition: I just looked at your web site and would you believe I grew up about four blocks from there? Last edited by steph_g; 10-16-2010 at 10:02 PM. |

I jailbroke my iPhone and ever since then, Bluefire causes my iPhone (4) to freeze up. It's the only app that does it. Anyone else have this problem?

I emailed them several months ago when I got my iPad, and they said they are working on it. From the things I've read, I wouldn't hold my breath. That's why I would be more than happy to pay for an app that would let me read library books on my iPad. We have a great elibrary system where I live that I can't use. That annoys me. I sure hope someone is able to find a way to make it work for iPad owners!
