Reader Specs in my wish list
I wish, that the text is displayed in lines parallel to the shorter edges of the display (that would be vertically in PC monitors), hopefully in two columns, that make them easier to read and to insert 1 column width graphics. I have not seen the specs of the reader. --Dagoflores 01:30, 17 March 2006 (EST)
fbreader
I just stumbled upon fbreader (http://only.mawhrin.net/fbreader/) and wanted to mention it here. Generally I think an HTML-based approach with a somehow offline capable Wiki (more on that later) is the way to go, maybe something like fbreader and/or other such "simple" (?) readers are of interest for existing content in those formats, if relevant? --Vorburger 17:26, 21 March 2006 (EST)
Font and Page Size?
When making these eBooks, what font size should they be in, and what should the page size be? --Munchinguy 14:03, 24 June 2006 (EDT)
Composition
I am sure that one of the requirements from teachers will be the ability of both teacher and student to be able to produce compositions (papers, lessons, ... yearbooks). Depending on the grade-level of the student, this should be a very simple process. The flow described is too complicated.
Also, would each school have some sort of central server to hold these compositions? There needs to be a complete solution made available at the time of launch. Perhaps Quanta has systems that OLPC SW can run and be the library server.
contributing an e-book reader-program
i might like to contribute an e-book reader-app i've programmed. i wrote it in realbasic, which runs under some flavors of linux. how would i submit a "hello world" program to see if it executes on your machine? thanks... let me know at bowerbird@aol.com
