..and I just pre-released a FBReader Activity for SOAS and other Fedora 11 based builds (it may also work in other distro based builds - I haven't tested, but it won't work in anything else than x86 (32-bit) for sure ;-). http://dev.laptop.org/~sayamindu/experimental/FBReader-10.xo This has got very little testing from me (note the experimental tag), and though in theory it should be able to share books - I have not tested it out (the sharing works fine with the OLPC 8.2 OS release). Also note that in certain cases, if you are not able to open epub files downloaded via Browse, please try with files on a USB stick (which you have copied on a non-sugar machine). A couple of nice places to get Epub books: http://www.feedbooks.com/ and http://www.epubbooks.com/ Please test this as much as possible, and if it is found to be good enough, I'll make a proper release.
