It is interesting to hear about Google's mobile book service, just days before Amazon's rumored announcement of a new Kindle:

Today we are excited to announce the launch of a mobile version of Google Book Search, opening up over 1.5 million mobile public domain books in the US (and over half a million outside the US) for you to browse while buying your postage. While these books were already available on Google Book Search, these new mobile editions are optimized to be read on a small screen.

The OCR'd text looks pretty good on my iPod touch.
