Can someone give me a general over view of reading books on playbook?
what is my best option if I want to be able to read an ebook i buy on two different playbooks now and on future versions ie. 2.0 and BBX and possibly also on my mac?
As I have posted in another thread, I love using Book Reader..a the developer support is great, and the functionality keeps on getting better. I have no hesitation in recommending it.

I use my sony ereader when light conditions are bright, but the PB when reading in bed or when it is not bright. By setting the brightness down, I don't have a problem with the PB screen, in fact it is easier to read in reduced light situations than the e-ink device. The night screen available from some of the epub reader apps is also kind of neat.
Here is a more complete overview: The Kobo reader, which is native to the PB OS will only read books that you download from the Kobo store. You can read books you purchase from Amazon via their Cloud Reader.
If you have your own non-DRM ebooks, then there are several apps available that will read them. The best are Book Reader and Play Epub.These readers will NOT read DRM encrypted ebooks. If you have non DRM ebooks that are not in epub or mobi format you can use shareware program Calibre to convert them. There are at least two different webistes that will sell non DRM ebooks: Baen Books Science Fiction & Fantasy - Home Page and The lowest price of eBook & Audiobook collections. - Bearlib.com I hope you enjoy reading on your PB as much as I do!
I love my playbook but am soooo sad not to be able to read library books. Is there any hope of the overdrive and kindle apps being available for playbook?
