Anyone know if eReader.com will be making a VGA version? The text is nearly unreadable now.

Also, I had to pay for Text Reader because uBook reader's text is all bitmapped and blurry. :(

Any help is appreciated.

I don't know much about ubook. I couldn't get MS Reader to activate and was mighty pissed about it until some helpful postings here and there directed me to Mobipocket Reader. And what do you know, it was not optimized for VGA :evil:. Then more digging on the helpful forums directed me to "VGA Brute Force" on Tweaks2k2.net. Now it is readable even though the font is a bit small.

I wonder if Tweaks2k2 could help you with your reader.

I don't know anything about eReader, but I can tell you that a number of readers, dictionaries and book-related software doesn't render text very crisply on VGA displays. Seems that text was optimized for QVGA when these products were developed, and there's going to be some lag time now until they can adequately support VGA displays. We'll just have to be patient.....
