Must be an "alpha" day because this is yet-another pre-beta today. It’s still exciting news though since up to now Mobipocket was absent from regular or feature phones that support Java (J2ME). If you have a device that can run it, you can find the software right here. It bears repeating: this is an alpha, so it’s clearly a first-look and you should expect bugs. In fact, you won’t even get support from Mobipocket, so only the adventurous need apply.

This current version was developed for Sony Ericsson Phones, so if you have a different brand, you’re likely to be limited to free books only. Regardless of your handset, this is great news considering how many phones out there support J2ME. Good on you Mobipocket!
