Edit: Oops! I missed the message above stating that there _is_ an Overdrive app for Android-based systems. I assume it wasn't built by Adobe. I wonder if whoever built it would also build a version for the non-Android Linux ereaders?

It's the official Overdrive Media for Android app. There's probably a version for i-devices - someone who has one might want to chime in?

Android is becoming increasingly popular as an OS for ereaders. I don't think the idea of an Overdrive integrated ereader is too farfetched.
