You're not going to want to read "War and Peace" on it, but it's excellent for occasion quick reading.
What's wrong with that? I know i read Anna Karenina in eucalyptus app last month, and the overall experience is pretty good.

If you're happy with reading W&P on an iPhone, that's great. Being "middle aged" I find that these days I really need a larger screen to read comfortably for long periods, so I read on my iPad. What's really nice is the way that the iPad and iPhone automatically sync bookmarks, so I can read on my iPad, and the next time I open the same book on the iPhone it'll be at the right page to just carry on reading.

So that's what the "sync bookmarks" setting supposed to do. I sometimes wonder about it, where will my bookmark synced if i turned it on? I don't think they have have some kind of ibooks app for desktop. Of course since i don't have iPad nor iPhone, it doesn't really useful for me. But for those who does, great.

You are completely right, of course. An even bigger question is why do 3G users not get the double-click task switch interface? Even without multitasking, it's still potentially useful for switching between apps, and of course, including it would have provided you with the missing screen orientation lock.

The folders are excellent. Makes finding apps so much easier and everything is much tidier.

The part of Anna Karenina will be played by Thumbalina.

I also like being able to make playlists without needing to use a computer.

I wonder what the situation is for people with iPod touch 1G. Are we even able to install iOS 4 on our devices?

Not officially. I did read that some jailbreakers were looking into adding support.

Indeed, there are people. I'm going to try the Whited00r Project's firmware.
