The app is still rough. For example, the first screen you see is a login screen with no explanation, so you're not sure if you are logging into eCarrel, Android, or something else. No Register button - nothing. It's only after you fail to login that you see a Register button. And their web site is nonexistent - 404 errors. And there are no free books to see how the reader works. And all the previews I tried were little more than the table of contents of a book. And there's no Search functionality....

Search and preview all books (in Cloud and in your library), network with readers and share bookmarks, "live" updated code samples for programming books, perfect for O'Reilly library. This app takes tablet reading/bookstore to a whole new level!
