  • This is a free book site that allows you to read classic works on your SMART phone! I went to Mobipocket.com and set up an account and was downloading in no time! Imagine the power of this in the classroom! - By Jen Hegna (Posted from the Information Fluency Group on Diigo)
    
  
  
  Thanks Jen for pointing out this software. I appreciate the very cool aspects of using this software on a smart phone. NO doubt about it: phone applications a great way to extend the internet, 21cif, and e-learning. 
  
  I'm surrounded by iPhones! All of my kids have them, and my younger brother is part of a start-up (Appy Entertainment) creating iPhone applications. I've also used a friend's iPhone to surf into one of my Moodle classes. Everywhere I look I see iPhones!
  
  So, I get it! (But I don't want it!) The screen size is just too small for me. I'm very interested in digital reading, but haven't made the jump to a specialized e-book readers. Instead, I'm thinking about a laptop with a wireless chipset. I want something ultra light with a full sized screen that provides me with full phone capability, access to high speed internet / phone net, and strong netbrowsing. 
  
  The gear is out there right now... However, I'm waiting for the tech to mature and the prices to fall.  ~ Dennis (AKA wiredinstructor... but I'm willing to go wireless... really! )
