There's an article (column) on CNet about one guy's experience getting converted to e-books by the iPhone Kindle app:

Thanks for the link. I found a similar experience using Stanza on my iPhone. I prefer my e-ink device but it is just too useful to ALWAYS have some reading material with you. I've read multiple novels on my iPhone and it works.

Was a similar experience for me. I carried my tablet with me for school, and stumbled across FBReader. The two combined gave me a nice book experience, that I could do while inbetween classes, or waiting for teachers. When I got my N800, same thing.

true to that, the iPhone is a really good mobile device for me. I can bring anything with it. As they say "there is an app for everything". That includes books. However, that doesn't change the fact that it does have some minor glitches.
