Hi

Hi, I came here exclusively to find out if it's possible to get Amazon's ebooks for my preferred reader, FBReader on the Nokia N810.

Apparently it's not... :-(

Hang around the forum and you will find much better places to get ebooks.

Hi cynoclast. The Fbreader is not compatible to any DRM'd books. That means that you won't be able to buy ebooks from Amazon. You can, however, have a look at fictionwise.com, they do have non-protected Mobipocket books for sale. If you like SF, you can go over to baen.com, where they also do sell unprotected Mobi books.

As a matter of fact, there are a lot of sites giving books away for free. There is us (7000 books to date), manybooks and feedbooks to mention but a few. And you can read all those books on your Nokia.

Oh yes, and welcome!
