If you click on an ePub download link in the Android browser and get back an error saying "Cannot download. The content type is not supported on the device", then make sure the web server is setting the Content-Type header to "application/epub+zip" and not "application/octet-stream". When you do this, Android will launch FBReaderJ automatically (provided that you have it installed, of course).

Yesterday I held a G1 phone in my hands. An interesting little device. I'd buy one in a heartbeat, if I could. T-Mobile sells them only with a data plan, and T-Mobile doesn't operate in Lithuania. Openness is the primary reason I'm interested in Android phones. I don't see how that can be compatible with operator lock-in.
