Calibre

Is there a version of Calibre's e-reader software for Web OS? I have a Touchpad and the pReader software sucks.

There isn't, but you can manage library via calibre server over the air.

I *think* mcbarrettsgood is looking for the eBook VIEWER portion of calibre on WebOS.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I'm looking for a easy way to import books to my Touchpad. Right now I use TB File Transfer to wirelessly transfer them in. I then have to import them to the pReader app one at a time. Please tell me there is a better way.

What I have found works for me: Use the Kindle App (beta) for Touchpad. The latest versions of Calibre will automatically put your books (mobi - you don't say if you have a format-of-choice, but Calibre will handle this well) in the palmkindle directory. Then you have to run the Kindle Import utility (available in Preware) to have the app recognize all your books. Acouple of extra steps, but you can do it in bulk, and the reader in the Kindle App is great.
