Option 1) It runs android, so you can do whatever you want with an app of your choice.

Option 2) You can read by using the Content Server itself (using browser). I'm using this option. It is far better than any app I know. The up sync is automatic. When you switch device, you need to hit Sync button to resume reading. All highlights and annotations are synced too.

To elaborate it further, you may wonder what it feels like using a browser, what if you go offline? what if the server is not running? The answer is: you can make use of "cache mode" available in a browser called : Fully Kiosk Browser (not sure I typed it right), available in Google Play Store.
