Bookz, an autonoumous eBook reader

Bookz a very simple reader that is designed to handle unformatted text files. But its unique features are:
  • An internet browser that can download any .txt file found on a website
  • Integrated search form for the Project Gutenberg library.

Commercial ($5, 4E)

  • Wide choice of fonts and size. Night mode.
  • Ability to use background images.
  • Handles big files, bookmarks.

  • No per-book preferences.
  • No support of ebook formats.

Early verdict the day after:
Handy utility if you read txt files (gamefaqs.com, ...), one of the few not requiring any server or account to get more documents on the go.

I just wanted to say that I'm a big fan of this one, and the newest update was rather sweet. The website states that pdb support is coming, so I'd think this app is one of those worth having an eye out for in the future. :-)

Cheers!
