I've yet to find a SINGLE reader that I really like, but that being said I do have to take exception with your review of iReader. It has a lot of faults - most significantly it's imperfect support of eReader format it promises in the paid version.
That being said, I found loading books to be very intuitive - simply navigate to where the books live on your phone/SD card via the built in navigator, select the book you want to read, and enjoy. The "home page" even shows you recent books that you've read and lists them in the order last accessed so that you can find more recent reads first.
eReader.com's software, which on every other platform I've ever used had always been my solution of choice for ebooks; however, the Android version I find very difficult to use, if for no other reason then the scroll bar is located in such a place that it is difficult on my device to read a book without accidently clicking on the scroll bar and jumping to a different part of the book with no easy way to return to your previous page. I complained to eReader about the issue asking for a way to turn off the scroll bar - I am content to navigate via botton and menu dialogue boxes - but have been told... REPEATEDLY... that they do not support the disabling of the native scroll bar that they built in.
eReader - offer an option to disable the scroll bar so I am no longer accidently changing pages/chapters/sections of the book and I will return a happy customer content to remain you for years to come. Fail to do so, and a customer of close to 10 years is looking for a new software solution that doesn't include you...
