Is there a solution for PC/Netbook? Can PocketPC apps be run on XP? What about Ubuntu?

I am going to buy an Andoid phone soon as well and it would be nice to use MMS. I used it some time ago and loved it.

You know, I'm not totally sure about the new Google G1. The nice thing about that platform however, is that it is open. I think it takes any type of java application. But I also believe it has 3G connectivity so you can connect easily to http://scriptures.lds.org. Another sidenote... the iPhone app out, Scriptures, is really coming along nicely. It works offline too and it is really sweet. I would really like to see some of the functionality of MarkMyScriptures though for highlighting. That is the last thing it is missing, but it has all the extra stuff and footnotes now.

I am considering buying the new t-mobile/google G1 which uses the android format. Will I be able to access any of the LDS scriptures or material with that phone?

I have used YanceyWare (http://www.yanceyware.com/) for years from my old iPAQ days to my PocketPC Phone. I am not a big marker in my electronic scriptures so that was never a feature that was super important to me – you can put annotations in there, but I haven’t done much of that.

It has a good amount of content and people have built tools to help them convert Church content into the ybk format that the reader uses. It is donation-ware. I wish it had better soft key support (although looking at the site it appears that there is a beta out that should improve on that – I am going to try that!).
