[maemo-users] N800 as e-book reader

I've now installed Evince on my N800 and it rocks!  I'd love to see a
few prefs for background color especially (which can make long texts
much easier on the eyes) but overall, it's amazingly good and quick at
presenting PDF.  I've just downloaded the Art of War from
ManyBooks.net and it's well formatted and easy to read.

Thanks!!

Rick - I'll have to check out your books now at the IA...
