isPermaLink="false">http://www.geardiary.com/?p=77398#comment-67994</guid> <description>There are, in my opinion, real user interface problems with the Android version of eReader.  It&#039;s not nearly as usable as it is on all other platforms, even putting aside the limited customizations.
For example, the progress bar at the bottom of the screen is a menace!  It shows the progress for the current chapter, not for the whole book!  Who cares if i&#039;m 75% through chapter nine?  I want to know that I&#039;m about 30% through the book.  Also, if you accidentally touch the progress bar, you&#039;re instantly transported to a page in the book proportional to where you touched the bar.  So, I&#039;m tapping the bottom half of the page to turn to the next page, but I tap a bit too low on the screen... suddenly, I find myself in chapter 31, page 19 instead of chapter nine.  And, there&#039;s no way to find your way back, short of starting over near the beginning of the book. These two problems alone make eReader almost unusable... and I HATE saying that because it was by far my favorite e-book reader on Palm and Pocket PC/Windows Mobile.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are, in my opinion, real user interface problems with the Android version of eReader.
