Review

Reading in this Microsoft product is gratifying to the eye – thanks to ClearType technology screen types are smoothed over. This program prepossess by its small size, functionality and various features. Besides, there are a lot of instruments in the program, such as good navigation, searching, highlight, bookmarks, personal library, arbitrary drawing, notes, contents, links to the chapters. There is the possibility to read the text audibly (Text-to-Speech), reflow text under the window size, you also can make handwritten notes. You can view your annotations and rename or erase any of them at any time. The rotate and resize features enable you to take full advantage of your device in landscape and portrait modes.

Note: you can use this version (Microsoft Reader 2.6) only if you have Microsoft Origami Experience Pack or Microsoft Touch Pack installed on your PC. So if you do not have one of this packs you will have either to install one of them from mocrosoft.com, or to visit www. microsoft.com/reader and find and install the apropriate version of Microsoft Reader.

After several redirections I get to download the new version. With one caveat: it can only be installed on Vista Ultimate or Windows XP Tablet PC and it has a different name: Microsoft Reader Optimized For Origami, has v2.6 instead of v2.5 reported here...

The most recent version on Microsoft's site is v2.1.1 as seen here: http://www.microsoft.com/reader/uk/downloads/pc.mspx

So did you find v2.5?

I try to download the recommended version, and Microsoft can't seem to find it.

The latest version as it is stated is 2.6, just click on the download button on this page and it will redirect you to the Microsoft's page with the download of this version.
