Hey, newbie here on the mobilereads forums.
I was reading ebooks on my work Blackberry with 3 different software pkgs-- mobipocket, Secure E-Reader, and Barnes & Noble Secure E-Pub.

After I got my Archos 7HT, I realized that the Android version 1.6 would not support Mobipocket or Kindle for Android.

I started using Aldiko, and I really like it, more features! Like sort by author, add tags.

Then I realized that I could download all my "multiformat" ebooks from Fictionwise in DRM-free E-Pub format.

I'm in the process of converting my books into E-pub so I can get them all into one format and one directory.

I wandered over here from Dark Reverser and the Apprentice.

==> I flashed my Archos with the firmware developed by Sir Dom over on the Archosfans forums. That enables google apps and google marketplace. It's still better to get Aldiko thru the Archos AppsLib. The Google Marketplace Aldiko will cut the bottom line of text off the page.

Freedom & Android!!
