eBooks on the iPhone

What makes the iPhone so popular? Well, you can turn it into exactly the all-singing all-dancing gadget you’ve always wanted. If you want games, game away. If you want an organiser, let’s get you organised. And if you’ve always dreamt about carrying around all your favourite ebooks, there’s Stanza. Yes that’s right, it’s an ebook reader, too.

Stanza is awesome. It turns the iPhone into a portable library where your favourite books are just a tap or two away. Stanza comes with an online catalogue (connecting it to Project Gutenberg, Feedbooks and other free ebook sources), and downloading a new book is often just a matter of seconds. Navigation through the books is easy, and the app remembers where you stopped reading and opens the book at that page the next time you open it. The best thing – well, apart from the fact that it’s a free app- is the bookmark function, though. You can bookmark a page and add your own description, so you’ll always find the favourite parts in any book in a matter of seconds.
