Apple iPhone eBook reader update

Original Post from August 11th, 2008.


In this previous post I discussed a program for reading eBooks on your iPhone (withing which I include the iPod Touch via Wi-Fi).

Now new iPhone firmware has (probably temporarily) nixed that application - but this article from the Wired blog finds a more than acceptable replacement that connects to the excellent FeedBooks online store of free eBooks and provides what sounds like a pretty nice iTunes/Kindle-like experience (if you get onto the internet first via 3G or Wi-Fi).

P.S. Despite the sentiment (that I can share) of George Orwell, "Homage to Catalonia" is not his greatest book, or that great a read in my opinion.
