actually if you have jailbroken your ipod or iphone, its very easy. you can just download the books from installer straight to your ipod if you add the right sources

Hi:

Just a quick correction: the program’s name is Books.app, not Book.apps.

It is indeed a very “techy” solution at the moment. But I’d bet, with time, it will be less so. I expect it won’t be long before an enterprising hacker works up a “one-click install” program for the iPhone.

Thanks for checking it out!

This isn’t a practical solution, except for the real techy. I looked at the ipHUC site and I don’t understand what they are talking about. It seems to be meant for Linux gurus. I’m not going to fool with this on my MacBook!

In the meantime, since the first firmware upgrade to the iPhone, Safari seems much more stable than it was before. I’ve been using Insanely Great News’ Filemark Maker and, without the previous Safari crashes I would say it is the way to go on the iPhone at the present time. We still need, however, a real, onboard program.

You can find Filemark Maker at:
