The only way for me to fairly review an e-reader application for the iPhone is to start right out by saying that reading a full book on anything other than a bound volume filled with pages does not exactly appeal to me. I once borrowed a Sony Reader; it languished in disuse as I sat on the couch and read a real book. I’ve tried Amazon’s Kindle app for the iPhone; that lost me after about three uses. That isn’t to say that I think either of these products, or the whole category of e-readers in general, should just go home and die. It’s not their problem; it’s mine.
