The Read Activity now has support for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPUB Epub] files. Epub is a standard format for ebooks which is gaining fast acceptance in the (e)book publishing and distribution community. A number of websites such as [http://www.feedbooks.com feedbooks.com], [http://www.epubbooks.com/ epubbooks.com] and [http://booksearch.blogspot.com/2009/08/download-over-million-public-domain.html Google Books] provide high quality, free Epub books for everyone to download. Apart from Epub support, this release of Read Activity also lets one associate (add and edit) notes with one's bookmarks, and has a slightly more useful fullscreen view which lets one get a rough idea of how much battery is left in the laptop/netbook without invoking the Sugar frame.
