Anyone use Nokia 5800 as ebook reader? - Page 2

I find that readmaniac works very well on my 5800. However I had to split the book up into tiny pieces because I don't know which model to pick (they don't have 5800 yet). So I just picked generic nokia mobile phone. Apart from that, it works well!!

thx!

This is one of the problems with the TequilaCat ebook reader. Sure, you can press the red button to shut it down, but often I just want to change something in options. To do that you have to exit, restart, then do the change. This isn't really a good solution. This is one of many ebook readers that I've tried on the 5800, the best one so far being the ZXReader. Most of the others only have a half screen with a compass and button in the middle for navigation. Not my idea for optimization of a touch screen. Or Mobipocket changing pages with the volume switch - that got tiring very quickly!

hi, what u need to do is just delete the jad file and install the jar file. It will work just as good.

I just installed Mobipocket eBook reader. I used view fullscreen, how to exit a book then? If I close the program, when I open it again I am again at the same book. Thats the only minus so far. If it can be fixed somehow it is great program.

UPDATE: I just reinstalled and changed setting to always open library and not a last book.

So now the only real problem is font size. How to increase it on Nokia 5800. The default font is way too small for me. I know you need to press key 4, but as you know there is no key 4 on Nokia 5800. Hope there is a way.

TIA

For txt files ZXReader works best. No problems with fullscreen, landscape mode, can increase/decrease font... Way better than TequilaCat BookReader v2.2.24. Easier interface.
