Until now, there are no double page reading mode, pan mode does not work correctly, You can't side load comics from web/FTP/smb/Dropbox
All it added was some filemanagement thing. The bookshelf mode has been requested ages ago, but just went through.
I've jumped ship through comicglass, and while it's not so flashy as comiczeal, it is made with the reader in mind.
One extra point for comicglass is the fact that it doesn't need to extract all files li,e cz does. Cz's way is creating millions of files as the comic archives are extracted. This causes a major slowdown in sync&backups. Cg just extract on the fly.

That's interesting; I don't know if it's the fact that my first computer was slow as heck and ran slackware linux (I built it myself! Dad didn't even have to help me put the GPU in! I bled for that computer. *reminiscent sigh*) but I'd rather have a program that does what it says on the tin and does it well than a program that looks good and crashes a lot.
Thanks! It's really looking like ComicGlass is the way to go, with Bookman as a second. This will save me the $3, I hope.
