I read on a Palm OS PDA. It doesn't do ePub, but I can convert that to something it does do with Calibre. It's a 480x320 landscape display, with a 3.25" x 2.25" screen size.

It looks like this displaying a document in Plucker, an open source offline HTML viewer, using a 12 point Bitstream + Courier font,



like this displaying a file in Mobipocket for PalmOS, using a custom font enabled by FonthackV,



and a PDF looks like this displayed in the open source PalmPDF viewer.



I have no problems reading on it, and a larger screen would be even sweeter.

Depending on what ebook viewer solutions exist for the Droid, I think you'll be pleased.
