Borders has just launched their free eBook Store. Starting tomorrow, any U.S. resident can download the eReader app and receive 5 free books! These free top-selling books include: Frankenstein by Dean Koontz, One Shot by Lee Child, The Alchemyst by Michael Scott, Julia Child’s Kitchen Wisdom and Master your Metabolism by Jillian Michaels. Better act fast, the deal ends on late Sunday evening. Of course, there is always a catch. I went to download the app on my Storm2 (this was before I knew about the weekend deal), and little to my surprise, my device was not compatible. Looks like you need to be rockin a BlackBerry Bold 9000 on OS 4.6, 9700 on 5.0, Curve on 4.5 and 4.6, 8500 on 5.0 and Tour on 4.7. A free Borders.com account is also needed. If you want to pick this up now, and own one of the above devices, it is available for download today. Below are a list of features that the app allows you to do. Click the jump using your BlackBerry Browser to download via OTA.
