I have heard and seen that a lot of novels come in text format compatible in some cell phones so one can read a whole novel in a cell phone? Do you prefer something like that? Frankly, i wouldnt like it. The pleasure of having a book is so different from getting too much into technology. Whats your say?

Yes, I often read books from my cellphone. I think the UMD format for ebooks are great because it has bookmark. It is very common for me to read a whole book from my cellphone.

Honestly, I don't think I would have the patience for that. I would rather hold the book I am reading and not have to fiddle with my cell phone. Not to mention the words on the cell phone would be much smaller and I couldn't really make out what i was reading to well. So, I think I will just stick with my books!

I read a lot of books on my PDA. Which isn't to say I don't love the feeling of a real book and so on. However especially when I am traveling it's a lot more comfortable to carry around a small plastic thingy rather than a big pile of books :)

I dn;t like to read any longer articles on the computer, so i guess readin a boo on the cellphone isn't fun either. Personally I love a smell of a fresh printed book xD But if I haven't had a choice I would probably use it. You kno, sometimes you need an information and downlowading an e-book on your cellphone may be the fastest way to find it. but on the other hand can you imaging searching in 300 pages long book on your small cellphone screen?

I am sorry Surajpkn for my contra insight with your sincere confession on this issue. As I like to have that e-novel via my cellphone. The fastest way to get my favorite novel for my reading material and the easiest way to download that stuff to my computer. One of the benefit from electronic and communication technology, e-business as well. Means the business transaction also will generate rapid economy cycle and the equilibrium in supply and demand. Actually we could not afford to impede the growth and development in electronic and communication sector. Engineering nowadays is at high level of new creation and invention.
