Re: PictoPocket - Free Comic Book Reader for WM
I actually didn't "find" it, I wrote it!

I'd enjoy hearing about people's experience with the program. I've only tested on an HTC Touch, so I'm not sure how it will work on other devices, VGA, etc.

For a few comic books to get you started, check out the Moon Books Project or FromTheGutter in the files section.

Hi,

I installed .net 3.5 on my SmartPhone Moto Q and PictoPocket and it works great!

Thanks for making a cbr reader for SmartPhones.
