12880 I use a Palm Treo and have really enjoyed it.

The screen is small, but you can pick what size your text is still. The typical 300 page book is about 1300 pages on my phone.

There's the backlight so you can read in the sun.

My only complaint is you can't read .lit because there is no Microsoft EReader for Palm and will never be. I just avoid .lit and instead go for Mobipocket instead.

I haven't used the Blackberry but I have also heard that it is good for reading as well.

Hope the info helps. Good Luck finding a phone that will work for you!


Oh yeah, there are actually lots of free downloads right here on GoodReads. Under Explore > Books > Ebooks Here's the link: http://www.goodreads.com/book/ebooks

There are also alot of free comics, short stories, and self pub books from http://www.feedbooks.com

12880 There are actually lots of books on GoodReads for free. You can find a list of them here:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/ebooks

There isn't any way to sort or search for the free ebooks but GoodReads gets them from FeedBooks. I've found alot of short stories & other ebooks here that have been very interesting & you can sort by most recent or most popular.

12880 I'm starting Dead and Gone. I'm very excited to read it.

Unfortunately, I didn't work it into any of the challenges this month. :(

Me too Yz. I need to finish up the last 100 pages of Chill Factor before I start on May's books. Then I'm on to Darkfever.

12880 okay... just tried it... doesn't work - Sorry for the bad info.

It works on unprotected .prc files I've created from different work related manuals I like to carry around but not on protected .prc files - like your books will be.
Apr 30, 2009 01:22PM

12880 I usually convert to mobipocket so I haven't tried it yet - but ICE Book Reader should be able to convert the .prc file into html/txt/doc with no problems.

12880 I hope your feeling better soon BriansGirl!
12880 I just finished a book that takes place in Illinois - it's A Long Way From Chicago. It's a Newbery Award Winner & is about a couple of kids that spend a week with their grandma each month. A sweet read (and short).
12880 Thanks!
