Blackberrys get over-the-air book downloads from Mobipocket

The whole “over-the-air” bookstore space is heating up quite nicely. The now free eReader Pro for WinMo got direct downloads back in October and of course the Kindle offers instant content purchases through the built-in EV-DO. Add Mobipocket’s reader for Blackberry to the list as of today. Point your ‘berry at http://m.mobipocket.com for version 6 of the reader software and you’ll have the ability to download books without any computer intervention at all. You’re paying for that data connection, so why not use it? Speaking of the Kindle, James is loaning me his for a short bit. I wanted to look at the device for myself and there probably isn’t much I can say about that others haven’t already said. Still, if you have any remaining questions about the device, just let me know.(via MobileRead)
