Android Thoughts - Opinions, News, Advice & Reviews on Android Devices

"Sony Electronics previously announced that it would deliver an eBook reader app for Android in January, and the company has made good on the promise. The Reader app for Android is now available for devices running Android 2.2 or higher."

Not to be left in the dust, Sony has just released an Android version of their Sony Reader software. It behaves much as one would expect connected ereader software to except that this program can sync up with your Sony Reader Daily Edition. Much like with the Kindle and the Nook software, books, bookmarks, and highlights are all synced between your phone and your Daily Edition reader. Any Sony Reader users out there excited about this release?

Amazon has released Kindle for Android version 2. There are a bunch of new features but these are some of my favorites: Access to newspapers and magazines, the store is improved, chapter title shows in status bar, and Froyo's move to SD is enabled now. You can also use new social networks integration integration to let friends know what you're reading.

I'd be interested to know exactly what the social network integration shows. Does it tell the book(s) you're reading, which page you're on, or what? Let me know if you figure it out. I was messing with it a little and didn't see anything.
