Library eBooks on Android
Has anyone figured out how to get library ebooks to open with anything other than Overdrive Media Console (which is not so great on bigger screens, and has no PDF support)?

On iOS, I can either fulfill the .ascm file directly (with Bluefire Reader or OMC), or fulfill the .acsm with ADE and then open it. But on Android it seems none of the apps have registered .ascm file type, and attempting to open a library .epub gives an error message. Also (at least on Mac) ADE will not detect my XOOM when tethered (have to use Android File Transfer to move any files over USB) so whatever 'blessings' ADE would otherwise confer are not available.
