Books on iPhone is a new web app offering over 20,000 books and articles to read in an iPhone optimized format. The site is
free to use and seems to be quite a good option as an ebook-reading alternative for non-jailbroken iPhones.
Though the app is still a little clumsy, it does offer some very handy features.
- Book on iPhone enables you to adjust the font size (between 8 to 14 point) and choose between around 9 fonts to use for the body text.
- It also lets you maintain a “ReadList” of titles you are currently reading or ones you want to earmark when browsing through your search results.
- You can upload virtually any text from a desktop machine onto their site, and have it formatted for the iPhone and added to your reading list.
- And finally, the app allows you to add personal notes to pages as you are reading—providing quite a useful study-aid.
