If I'm giving up the physical book, those prices are going to have to drop significantly for me to want to jump to ebooks.

I'd prefer a monthly fee all-you-can-read option.
 
Wow eReader app works sweet... I bought a couple of eBooks about 3 years ago from www.ereader.com for my Palm T|2 (but never used them since)... I'm impressed I still have access to those books after such a long time. :) Downloaded them and unlocked straight to my iPod touch kewl. :)
 
i also downloaded bookshelf and am easily able to load unprotected books from my computer to the iphone - very easy to load them - the UI isn't as good as ereader and you cant buy books - but it works well.
 
has anyone been able to get this to work? The authentication process doesn't seem to work - whatever I enter as a username or password will just produce a seemingly empty bookshelf.

Using my correct ereader.com account does the same thing - so does my fictionwise account.

Anyone?

You need to double check your login details - if you mistype the login or password you won't be told: you'll just get an empty bookshelf
 
new ebooks and unlock codes

all previous books appear in bookshelf and require my unlock code. Purchased 4 ebooks today with 20% off survey coupon. Show in my account as No Unlick Code Required. But do not appear in bookshelf. Bought a single book with 10% off code and shows in account with required code and in bookshelf. How can I get those 4 I purchased earlier?? When downloaded to Mac it does not prompt me for unlock code.



IT WORKS!! About 8 hours later, the books I bought now appear. happy camper here! All is good! Got email from support stating they were just overwhelmed with response so must have been some sort of lag time. Don';t care why or how, so long as I can READ!
 
woo hoo - got my books also - i guess this whole iphone thing overwhelmed everyone. i can finally start reading. i love swiping to turn pages and the fonts look very easily read.

I've used ereader in several formats, and I have to say, this one is very well done! For a first-time ebook app, it does a great job.

Agreed. What I really like is that if I purchase a book, I can read it on several devices: iPhone, WinMob device, Mac, etc. without having to repurchase it.
