Welcome Ivan,
Because the eBookwise and others may be hard to get locally, you could try one of the Korean or Chinese readers but you may be better off getting the type of phone you mentioned. I sometimes read on my Nokia 770 internet tablet. Its display is about 90cm by 55cm. and can be rotated landscape or portrait. I use FB Reader which is probably not available for phones but Mobipocket will work on many phones and is free. Some phones (e.g., The Iphone) have some sort of reader available but you might have to pay for it. Check out the list of Mobipocket supported devices here, http://www.mobipocket.com/en/Downloa...sp?Language=EN Michael |

Yes you can.
Of the several hundred book that have passed through my 1150, I've paid for 3. Here are some sources, along with the uploaded book available on this site. http://www.baen.com/library/ http://baencd.thefifthimperium.com/ http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page Michael |

Thank you for the response. Those sites have a ton of books however they don't seem to have some of the authors I enjoy reading such as King, Koontz, Brown, and Grisham.
Based on the name of some of the titles I think I will download some and try a few new authors. Thanks again for your help. |

best sellers
Fictionwise and BoB both have a good selection of best seller's such as Koontz, King etc.
Project Gutenberg also has a great selection of classics! More and more authors are having their backlists made available in ebook format which is great for some of the seriously prolific authors! (Andre Norton and Mercedes Lackey come to mind) Have you checked out our suggestions and recommendations area for books? Amy |
