Great!
My favorite software is Cool Reader 3 builds made by jotas.
The current one is cr3.0.57-15-43-jotas.apk, although I am a few build behind, not tested this one yet.

But there are people who prefer the original buggins builds.
You may also try AlReader - it has advantages, such as an ability to edit the book, so you can fix OCR problems directly on T2 while reading, etc.
But its support for T2 buttons is minimal. But next page / previous page buttons do work.
In comparison, on CR3 you can have many actions mapped to short press, long press, double press actions of T2 buttons.

I am also using GoldenDict integrated with CR. GoldenDict is a bit more suited for T2 than ColorDict.
It at least has page up / page down buttons on the screen, and also allows to define language pairs, and also to jump to a specific dictionary.
