Does anyone know of a good ebook reader for windows mobile, I have a ebook in both .txt and .doc format, but when i try to load it into word mobile it takes so long to load because it is such a large document. Is there anyway for me to read ebooks on my sprint mogul that works well?
My personal prefence is MobiPocket. It's free, and displays numerous file formats. I've been using it on my new Mogul and my BlackBerry prior to that.

Haali reader
microsofts reader works fine for me
AllReader+ is great reader too.
What pdf reader would you recommend for the HTC Touch Diamond? I've had a look at the text on adobe acrobat but its tiny!
Thanks,
Jon
If you chose reflow option the text will fit screen and can be zoomed in.
Only if you "tagged" the file before (or had AS doing it.)
I just got the Touch by Sprint, Or as it is called the Elf. I am looking for a good, easy to use ebook reader. I would prefer something that uses pdf, but as ong as I an find a converter, I will use any format. I have a bunch of Ebooks on my PC that I have previously bought and want a reader were I can use them. Thanks
You can use the mobile version of Adobe Reader to read pdfs, but I think it's a bit of a pain as they don't fit on the screen in a readable resolution. I tend to use Microsoft Reader, which uses lit files. Lit files are fairly easy to find. Otherwise I use Mobipocket, which reads a few different file formats.
Mobipocket Reader is the best ebook reader for Windows Mobile. They also have a free app called the Mobipocket Creator which will convert most ebooks to a txt or other readable format. The best thing about it its 100% free.
I second the MobiPocket, it's great.
P.S. Your device if your with Sprint is the Vogue!!!
easiest way to tell, the Vogue is doesn't have WiFi. There are other differences but that's the one that will cause you to go....Ahhhhhh....
Yes mobi pocket is very good reader...
The cool thing is, you can import pdf files, and it will remove the line-breaks automatically.
I've been using mobipocket for half year, and it totally beats other reader applications (and I've tried allot).
what is a good pocket reader to read ebooks?
Mobipocket Reader. Free.
any other ones? that one is not very touch friendlt.
Actually it depends on what format is your eBook too. For me I have Mobipocket Reader and RepliGo Viewer installed.
I think, that MS Reader is the best pocket reader.
But its a little bit difficult to produce / convert "lit-files"

"But its a little bit difficult to produce / convert "lit-files""
there is a free program which convert html, txt, doc and rtf directly to lit
There is also uBook Reader: http://www.gowerpoint.com, I use this and Mobipocket together
Microsoft Reader ftw. Seriously. Mobipocket and Ubook pale in comparison.

Mobi maybe, uBook heck no... the major, major prob with MS Reader is that it only reads one format... I want a reader that reads allllllll formats... sadly that has yet to be written... so I use uBook and MS Reader...
i basically get books for www.skyscape.com
but they use their own program and everything is sorted out via them. i really find their reader very unfriendly.
how can i find out what type of file it is?
I have been using Mobipocket Reader and also iSilo since many years with satisfaction on PalmOS.
And I have renewed this choice on my X1 after having tested many other readers, including the very crappy Microsoft one, that never wanted to install correctly (I had to create the shortut myself in the start menu) and that never wanted to read the common eBooks you can find for free on the internet.
And now, many publications are in HTML format, so I read them with Opera...
Is there any way to make the covers/thumbnails for pdf side loaded ebooks working? Everything is fine while the ebook is in the epub format, but there's no cover if it's in pdf. I can't convert it in Calibre because the program destroys whole content. Maybe there is a way to force Calibre to convert the ebook only by adding a cover and leaving the rest untouched? Or maybe you know how to do it in other way.

Hello, do anyone have news about this isuue? :crying::crying::crying:
The EPUB format has a place for cover images, the PDF format does not.
If you had a cover image for a PDF you'd either have to insert it in some non-standard place in the PDF file or else store it alongside.
I know how to extract a bitmap out of the first page of a PDF on the Nook and could write a bit of a wrapper to do that on the Nook.
The problem is gluing the whole thing together into something useful.
