I put up a new version which should hopefully fix the lockup problem.
I implemented custom loading code, so it should be able to read all the files now. I'm interested to hear your thoughts on how it performs.
It also no longer uses temporary files, so it may even be a little faster.Last edited by comicreadermobi; 11-25-09 at 11:50 AM.

I'm getting alot of "Unable to Extract File" errors.
When it does work, page-to-page is very slow.11-26-09 07:34 PMLike 0 -

Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com11-27-09 03:54 PMLike 0 - Hey all,
I found this comicreader mobi app and it looks amazing. I would love to try it out but unfortunately I cannot find the .cod file anywhere. I found the .jad file but that doesn't really do anything without the .cod (as far as I know). Would somebody be able to point me in the right direction?
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I am very new to blackberrys, coming from winmo phones. I am using a bold 9700 and I could post how it works once I got it running.
Any help is appreciated,
cheers,
Dan
edit: dang, shortly after I posted this, I tried opening the .jad while browsing on my blackberry. All is good, downloaded and installed. Now to test it out!Last edited by earthdan; 11-29-09 at 07:17 PM.

Yeah, the blackberry install process is really wierd! You'd think they'd find a better way of managing it.11-29-09 07:56 PMLike 0 -
Its odd that it goes away after a few seconds though...12-03-09 03:21 PMLike 0 - Ok, so its not technically a full release, (because you'd have to be crazy to release a product while half the country is away on vacation ), but if you'd like to buy the "prerelease" version, you can do so from here:

No real time to use it but one thing I can say it does not compare to any of the beta's, it's totally different.
It's $14.00 but my initial impression is that it could be worth it.12-22-09 12:45 PMLike 0 -

Page-to-page is almost flawless. The lens was always good and it still is.
I think there is 3 pages of options. There is fit-to-page which was never in any of the betas.
I never thought it would look and feel like the iphone APP but it does.12-22-09 03:35 PMLike 0 - I have to agree. I think $7 to $10 would be a fair price for what this app is. I'm a little disappointed that the release version is $14 but that's about par for the course when it comes to Blackberry and apps with no competition.

Not sure where the attitude is coming from on this, but it works both ways. As with every product/service, it's all about the perceived value. Some will think it appropriate and some won't. If you feel you've wasted your time, so be it, but let's get real here. You develop a product and price it according to your perception of value. As buyers, we also have a perspective don't we? If we feel it's not worth the asking price, so be it. You are free to disagree, but that's capitalism. Sorry if that offends you. Gotta say that given this recent turn of events, I wouldn't buy it if it were $1.12-22-09 07:47 PMLike 0
- ok, so to address the issue of cost. someone implied that I'm taking advantage just because there no competion. But the fact is, I charge the same price for the iphone. taking advantage of the lack of competion would have been just leaving you guys with the slow loads and poor image quality and being done with it. but instead i worked really hard to give you guys a great product that would compete well against anything even if there was competition!
This thread was started over 3 months ago so I know how hard you worked and your APP does compare well to your Iphone APP. Maybe even better with the BB's storms larger screen.12-22-09 10:04 PMLike 0 - Really?

I enjoy reading comics and this is an awesome APP for doing so. For me, I was happy to pay for this APP. It is APP that I will use daily. For me, great value!12-22-09 10:07 PMLike 0 - I have to agree. I think $7 to $10 would be a fair price for what this app is.

I would suggest offering a special Xmas price for a few days of $10.00, with a new thread here, to promote it.12-22-09 10:14 PMLike 0
