This is necessary because the eReader software is not in the Android Marketplace but downloadable directly from their website. At the top of the list should be a checkbox for “Unknown sources: Allow installation of non-Market applications.” Select that checkbox.

Wordplayer had the ability to add a bookmark, but that’s as close as I could get. So, imagine my disappointment when the two most highly rated ebook reading applications in the Android store – Aldiko and Wordplayer – turned out not to have the ability to copy, paste, or highlight an ebook. This was a necessary feature for me because of how I read books – I copy and paste or highlight text then use that text when I’m done reading the book to write the book review. The ebooks that would allow that were ebooks I had created myself. On our old phones, I had installed an ebook reader that allowed me to copy and paste text from the books I was reading (no DRM, of course) to a word file. For about three years before that, we were running an old Windows Mobile OS (I think version 5). As my regular readers know, Debi and I recently bought new cellphones that run the Android operating system.
