Smashwords to Droid phone
Hey all, hope everyone's having a good or at least decent morning.
Wanted to see if any of you might have some first-hand experience with a question I came across.
A reader wanted to know if they could get my book on their Droid smartphone. I don't own a Droid myself -hopelessly addicted to my "Crack"Berry - but I do know that there's allegedly a Kindle app for the Droid. And so I went to say, "yes, of course, we're on Kindle so you're all set," but then I realized he was responding to an ad where we gave out a coupon for 50% off on Smashwords. If he were to just buy the book off his Kindle app, he'd be charged the full price, which I'm sure he'd rather not do in favor of the coupon.
So my question is, have any of you ever bought a book on your Droid from Smashwords and read it as something other than a stock .pdf on your phone? Is there a way to download the .mobi file from Smashwords and then read that on your phone with the Kindle app (or any other applicable Droid app)? I know you can easily do that with Calibre for the pc, but not so sure if such a thing is possible with a phone...
Sorry if this wasn't extremely clear. I'm a little cloudy on the idea myself! But thanks for your time and have a great day.
-Joe
