My kids spend a lot of time using the PlaySation 3 and so it occured to me that it would be a good idea if the could use the device to read books. The Sony Reader store has a Kids Corner section with a lot of books they would enjoy reading. I have already purchased kids books for them on my e reader but they aren't overly interested so I'm hoping that seeing the book on a big screen TV will capture their attention. This morning I was able to convert a PDF children's book to JPEG, put it on a USB, and then view it on the TV, but it would be overly tedious to do that will all of my books. Is there an easier way to read e-books on the PS3? I searched the sony playstation store but there doesn't seem to be an app to read books purchased on the sony reader store.
