Zach:

I may be the only guy on earth thinking this, but I would LOVE to see a native Linux version or Bible+!

No, you are not! I would also like to see a Linux version. Right now I’m using the OS X version, but my MBP is already quite old and as I leave soon for the Mission field, I might be not able to effort a new Mac any more, when this one breaks. I’m already using Linux parallel and would like to switch completely, but with all the purchased books I have from OliveTree, I need a way to use this amazing app!

Looking forward to a wp7/8 version to truly be multiplatform.

1. No English dictionary that can be accessed within the app from any Bible or ebook. Preferably one with archaic usage and spellings. Reading John Owen and John Calvin can be challenging. And maybe some Latin and Greek words and phrases…i.e. δυλια (dulia) and λατρια (latria) [Institutes]. I can transliterate from the Greek into the Latin alphebet and know some Greek.

2. Being able to use highlights within a book (not from within a Bible). This may be available in other platforms other than the Nook, but the Nook is what me’s got.

3. PC app should be able to toggle between verticle scroll (default, and only option right now) and page…i.e. being able to just turn the page.

Other than this I enjoy using this app as my primary study Bible now.

I second Zach and Linux. And maybe the AmigaOS 4.x
