Hey There
Hey, guys. I'm joining the forums to try and get some epub conversion questions answered, but hopefully I'll get a lot more use out of it than just that.
I recently switched to formatting my books in epub rather than ereader, since ereader still doesn't have any software for Google's Android OS for phones like my T-Mobile G1. I've quickly grown to love epub over ereader now and will probably continue to use it even on devices with ereader software available. Especially since calibre makes creating epub files so much easier than all the tedium of manually PML tagging files to be converted to ereader with DropBook. The only feature I miss from ereader is its ability to create and use dictionaries. Anyways, I'm glad to be a member of the forum and look forward to perusing all of your knowledge |

Hi bookmunkie - welcome to MobileRead.
There are loads of epub advocates here, it looks set to be the format of choice in the future. I'm sure they'll be happy to welcome you to the fold. |

The only problem with epub is it's lack of a dictionary feature like eReader has. I'm thinking that that could be more a problem with reader software, though, than the format itself. Maybe that could be a future project for me.
