Can someone test it please? Try download this .epub and see if it will open on your Gamepad or on the Wii?

Thanks bro.

Glad to hear it. Can someone try a .txt or a .doc and see if that works? Just make on notepad or Word.

I uploaded a .txt file to my server and then tried to view it using the browser. It Works!

...i wasn't surprised as this works on the 3DS as well although I don't know
about other text files.

I can't wait for HTML5 to become a standard, that way all websites will be 100% compatible with Wii U.
