Whats the price to performance ratio on these things or are they all free? becausae I can get as many books as I want for free but I want the best way to read them without giving myself a migraine or a seizure … technically Drs orders are read real books with pages….if he bought them for me I would lol.

Ereader is the best in my opinion, here’s why: it has all of the best features of stanza like custom margins and line spacing and easy to switch to night mode but adds to that dictionary lookup, proper page numbering and search.

I agree with john. I find, after trying them all (except iSilo) that I still prefer eReader the best. I like the settings that I can adjust and the quick daytime/nightime reading button I can hit to change my settings depending on where/when I am reading. I liked Stanza, but still thought it was a little rough around the edges in the setting department.

I find Ereader to be the best. I love the auto scroll which is something even Stanza doesn’t have. Once you get the speed adjusted to your liking, no taps required – just pour the book into your brain.

I found Classics to be disappointing, and I am surprised that it is popular. You can only read those 16 books (which everyone over 18 has already read), and you can’t make any adjustments to formatting. I don’t know how anyone can read having to turn the page so often with that huge font.

I prefer eReader and Stanza, both of which let you add new content and change the formatting. You can get all of the books from Classics in Stanza for free, too.

I use iSilo – I started using it on the Palm OS (Treo 650) back in 2004 and have been using it (on Windows Mobile) ever since. When they released iSilo for iPhone/iPod Touch, I immediately got a Touch.

I use it mostly for WTLibrary … WT peeps, what up!

Its not about the reader so much but the content. Amazon offers more types of ebooks than Fictionwise. They have alot of computer related ebooks for the kindle which I find enjoyable. Currently I’m reading a ebooks on ubuntu and Vmware on the iphone kindle software. On Ereader I’m reading The Last Templar.

I have a Sony Reader which I love, and I never really thought about buying the Kindle until I got the Kindle App.

The idea that I can pick up my phone and continue from where I was reading on the Kindle, and when I go back to the Kindle it automatically knows where I got to is tremendous.

For me, I could not use the iPod as the only platform for e-book reading, but what a great compliment to an e-ink device.

I’d love to see ‘Classics’ bought over by an ebook seller and developed with some serious money behind it. My fav ebook reader but small selection of out of copyright titles.

I love Stanza. It is the best ebook reader for iPhone/Touch in my opinion. The developer is also very responsive to suggestions and comments.
