Received the following email. The report is quite interesting, but is way too long to summarize here:

ACLS Humanities E-Book (HEB) recently concluded its survey to test the use of digital scholarly monographs for research purposes on various handheld reading devices, such as Amazon’s Kindle, the Sony Reader, and Apple’s iPhone.

HEB has just published the detailed results of this survey and an overview of the process of converting titles for handhelds, including costs, in a new whitepaper available at:
