Now I can download free *.pdb books from manybooks.net, copy them to e:\data\others (i had to create the directory myself), and then I'm able to view them in eReader.

I found it -- books should go in e:\data\others.

It installed fine on my E51, but it can't find any e-books. Any word on where they should be installed? I tried the app on both the phone and the memory card and the books in \Others on both the phone and the card, but no luck.

That's really good news as that keeps my library with books from them readable on a current mobile device (which has S60 3rd as you might have guessed) instead of my aging PDA. And I don't have to take my PDA with me just for reading them, either.
It would have been cool if they would have mailed this info to everyone asking about it in the last few months. At least I didn't get that info till now though I asked for it only a few weeks ago.

Woohoo!!! I've been emailing them every couple of months for the last year and a half since I switched from Palm to a Nokia E61.
The software installs and runs on my E61, but unfortunately it shuts down often. I don't have any other apps running, except for Microsoft for Exchange (MfE).
I hope they fix it - I've been waiting for a while for this one!

free e-books
I can recommend also to look at the SF/Fantasy collection of the baen free library of Baen books, a well known SF publishing company. There are complete books as free samples, though be warned some might lure you into buying the other books in the series ;-)

eReader beta for S60 3rd Edition
A beta version of eReader.com's eBook software is now available for S60 3rd Edition. eReader is a long standing eBook store which provides some of the current best sellers in eBook form, protected via its own form of DRM. They provides a version of their reader for multiple platforms. However a few years ago they seemed to lose interest in support Symbian OS handsets, but under the new ownership of Fictionwise this seems to be changing.
