I am new to smart phones; is it possible to download novels directly to my. BB 9000?

I bookmarked it too, but you forgot to include another great source for free non-fiction ebooks: zbooc.com

Try the Didiom app – it should work for you:

I use the Mobipocket reader all the time and love it. However, what I am having trouble with is listening to audio books on my BB Tour. Audible does not support it and their work around doesn’t seem to work. I have tried other formats on WMP, but keep running into digital rights management issues. Any suggestions?

Please understand that Mobireader will not work for everyone. My company, along with other security conscious one, has the 3rd party use of serial ports disabled via policy. This way rogue software on the PC can’t gain access to the blackberry.

With this restriction valid programs like Mobireader are prohibited from transfering ebooks from the PC via USB.

Because of this I just chunk up text ebooks from sources like Gutenberg into small sections indexed by number (ie Dracula 1, Drqcula 2, etc.) and email them to my GMail account. Then whenever I want, regardless how long ago I emailed it to myslef, I just use Google’s GMail app and do a search on the keyword (ie “Dracula”) and tada my book pops up.

There’s no software to install on the PC but it is a bit of a pain emailing a 75-chunk book to myself.
