fbReader has finallly updated for the Maemo platform, to version 0.10.4-1. Enable the FBReader repo at http://www.fbreader.org/maemo, distribution chinook, and install. The new interface is slightly prettier, IMHO, the typeface is a tad more readable. Full changelog is available at http://fbreader.org/#0.10.0; it can now search the libraries at Feedbooks.com and LitRes.ru; follow the directions at http://fbreader.org/docs/network/ and search by title/author/whatever for free eBooks (mainly from Project Gutenberg.)

Wait for the Extras update instead.

That would be up to the developer; I'm just reporting an update I like. General, do you think there will be any diff in the extras version?

i like the new os style nav scrollbar, just wish it could be positioned horizontally at the bottom of the page rather than a vertical bar. In portrait view i like plenty of width, dont like giving up space to the scrollbar.

At least FBreader's developer has had the common sense to give the user the choice (old style navbar can be set in preferences).

Well, fifth actually wants new-style, just horizontal rather than vertical for portrait mode. I agree with him, I'd like that too.

In the latest update there now appears to be a tap/incremental/timed scrolling in the Preferences tabs *BUT* like the versions before, this feature doesn't seem to be functional on my N800.
