Advice Needed: eBooks on iPod Nano
Looking for advice on how to view eBooks on my iPod Nano. I found a product from Softpedia called "Ipod eBook Maker" but wondered if anyone had any other suggestions.

I know that you can create "vcards" for keeping addresses and phone numbers on the nano, but would be surprised if the nano does ebooks. Are you sure that it's the nano and not the Ipod touch that takes ebooks?

Information on this solution is in the Wiki under iPOD but the nano text is extremely small and difficult to read easily for many people. It is not adjustable.

Reading on the nano? Rather you than me! Makes my eyes water just thinking about it.

I can't imagine reading eBooks on an iPod Nano. That would be like reading a novel through a ticker tape. Almost every word you'd have to flip a page. ;-)

It's a little bit of a pain. I tried it on a greyscale ipod. It worked for reading short things like recipes, but full books, oh boy did that hurt my eyes.
