Comments on: Will Foxit’s eSlick Be Barnes & Noble’s Kindle Competitor? http://gigaom.com/mobile/will-foxits-eslick-be-barnes-nobles-kindle-competitor/ Sun, 27 May 2012 08:45:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Ben http://gigaom.com/mobile/will-foxits-eslick-be-barnes-nobles-kindle-competitor/#comment-418028 Fri, 15 May 2009 00:33:22 +0000 http://jkontherun.com/?p=35484#comment-418028 ‘doesn’t support content from the amazon store’. yea, of course not. we can’t just use a single format for our books and let people read them on any device. no way–that would make sense and be too useful.

At some point I went back to read some I’d purchased but never got to.

I can’t because to open them requires the credit card number I used to purchase them years ago. There seems to be no remedy for this.

That’s an infuriating security system.

Also, I agree with Lynn. If there’s no way to mark up or take notes on eSlick, I can’t really see myself springing for it.
