  Best reader for ppc I've used

  by: zonder_d on 16-Oct-2006 04:25:36 AM

  Pros: After buying my ppc I was looking for a good reader and finally opted for Haali Reader. This reader has all functions and settings for that type of program. Great view controls, support of many formats, possibility to attach dictionaries, handy bookmarks, button attachment, searcher - all those functions make Haali Reader the best reader to use. After all it is completely free.

  I use it to read books

  by: cossen on 08-Sep-2007 11:01:38 AM

  Pros: I use it to read books, it never crashes and I can read huge files with it, which I can't do in Word. Without this piece of software I wouln't be able to enjoy my PDA as much as I do now. I love it!!

  Excellent, easy to use free ebook reader

  by: chuckcowles on 17-Jul-2005 08:26:12 PM

  Pros: Many features, easy to bookmark, easy to configure buttons, text, etc. I haven't found any other free ebook reader that is better.

  Cons: Doesn't autoformat text. Some rtf files have line breaks every other line. I just open the file in Word and save as a text file so it is an easy fix.
