It is really great for downloading books from the public library. I think the browser works fine for an eink device. You have to set your expectations appropriately. I really like that you can highlight words in a book and have it look them up in Wikipedia or do a Google search. Others have reported that it works with the calibre content server, but I have not tried it myself to verify.

Sorry, it does not work with B&N DRM'ed books. I wish it did too since I also have a Nook Color. Hope that helps!
There's a 'Google Books' button on the 2nd homepage - it's through the Sony store, but it gives you access to all of Google's PD books.

I have not been successful trying to download purchased books from the Google Books site. I get a 'not connected to the network' error even though I am clearly connected. I have to say it's the only site I've had that problem with. I've downloaded directly from Kobo and Dropbox without problem.
