Today our friends at iPhone Matters posted a handy little article that provides some nice tips and great resources for reading eBooks on your iPhone or iPod touch. Because the existing iPhone apps present some significant inconveniences for reading eBooks and other PDF files, iPhone Matters has highlighted several online services that allow users to upload their eBooks for easier reading on the iPhone.
iPhone Matters especially recommends Readdle, which provides 50mb of online storage space in which to store your eBooks in a variety of formats; including Plucker, the standard mobile eBook reader format for Project Gutenberg, which houses over 20,000 free eBooks.
In addition, ReadWriteWeb has compiled a list of some of the top eBook readers; including, Free iPhone eBooks—which houses a limited selection of classics—and Scrollbox, which has a large public library and allows users to upload their own content.

Hi, I just wanted to point out that the screenshot you used in this post is actually from our service TextOnPhone, a service from Portable Reading (http://www.portablereading).
TextOnPhone has 50,000 readers and includes a library of books and stories from contemporary and classic authors, discussion forums for authors and readers, and the ability for users to upload their own content.
You can try it on at http://www.textonphone.com on the iPhone and iPod Touch.
