Does exactly what it says on the tin.
CHM files are kinda cool because they are really compiled HTML files and allow for easy text-in-page manipulation, image handling and navigation between pages.
Which is kinda perfect for a device like the iphone to read a book, especially a technical book.
This app does exactly what I had hoped for.
It has an easy method for getting files to the device. Be connected to the wifi network, point the web-browser on your computer to the provided IP address which is shown on the first screen you see and upload files to it. It handles files alphabetically and scrolls quickly through files.
It allows me to bookmark pages, it is very fast at loading and navigating (pretty much instantanious). I have a 59MB file/book (Sams Teachyourself MS Server 2008, that came on CD with the book). I can take my book with me and study whenever I have a spare hour or so in my day and not worry about lugging that big book around.
The only problem I have found is that it renders dashes (-) as some weird characters, I am sure the author will resolve this quickly though.
This app is simple, effective, fast and just works.
I will do a repeat, longterm review once I have had more time with it.
