Adobe Digital Editions
Adobe has released Digital Editions which is a free, Flex-based eBook reader for your PC. When it was out as a beta, it was Windows-only so I'm very pleased to see the final release supports Mac OS X as well (although some of the book install pages in their sample library appear to require Windows... unless you spoof your user agent!).

What do you get? A slick, clean monochrome interface with simple, intuitive controls. A library mode and a reading mode. Bookshelves to organize your books. Bookmarks. Text search. All in a 3Mb download.

Adobe has quite a few free sample books in its library to get you started.

Bill McCoy has plenty more details in his blog, in particular details of support for EPUB (aka OPS), an open standard, reflowable XHTML-based format.

I used DE quite a bit throughout it's beta. Though not a big fan of digital editions of books (I much prefer the real thing) I do like the DE interface and the potential as a platform for interactive books and/or for Adobe product manuals is definitely there.
