I must say that it is about time this app is Leopard-compatible or Intel-Compatible.

Though I still think a PDA-desktop bundle discount is an obvious step and am consequently still debating whether or not to buy the Pro version, I must give credit where credit is due:
For DRM'ed (officially purchased) ebooks, eReader stands alone. I've bought a dozen or more eReader ebooks and plan to buy any number of others, while my single experience with Adobe/Amazon's DRM'ed Acrobat ebook system left me clawing my brains out of my skull.
Although at first I didn't like the idea of having to input my credit card number into eReader to initially unlock the ebooks, after trying the Adobe system, I thank my lucky stars that eReader's DRM is as unobtrusive as it is. Unlike Acrobat ebooks, I've never had a problem activating either my old or new PDAs, or my iMac and PowerBook. It just works.
That said, I'd really like a table of contents that could be displayed within the ebook itself, not just as a drop-down sheet where half the items get truncated.

eReader 2.5.1 fixes crashing problem - Version: 2.5.1, 5/26/2004 05:27PM PST

2.5.1 is a bugfix release to fix the problem with crashing noted in my previous post on 2.5. So far it seems to be behaving properly.
I don't own a PDA, but I use Palm's eReader Pro to read a lot of ebooks. I appreciate its configurability--you can expand and contract margins and line spacing, choose full justification or no justification, and basically have text displayed the way you want to display it. Which is why I generally find the .pdb file format more comfortable for reading ebooks that are mostly text than PDF + either Preview or Adobe Acrobat.

Crashes on startup on iBook - Version: 2.5, 5/21/2004 07:15PM PST

This update installed and started okay on my Dual G4 machine at work, but it crashes with EXC_BAD_ACCESS every time I start it on my G3 iBook (both running OS X 10.3.3).
If you do download and install this, it doesn't overwrite your previous Palm Reader installation if you have one (but you may have to re-enter the digital rights info for purchased ebooks if you go back to the previous version).

...to have a discounted price to buy Palm Reader for both the desktop and the handheld. Like, 20 bucks for both.
BTW, what's new with v2.5?

Info directly from Palm's web site:
"The free and Pro versions of Palm Reader are now one application. You can try out the Pro features for up to 30 days. After the 30 day trial period, the Pro features will be disabled, but you can continue to use Palm Reader freely."

This is a 30 day demo, after which you have to buy it... or lose it.
