> Also, check out GoogleBooks. While they do not have any PC or Mac

> Some are in PDF format so you should be able to read them with Adobe Reader.
> Their current focus is on eReaders like the iPad or Nook

> BTW, Public many Libraries are now having eBooks that you can check out.
> Just ask them which app you should have for the eBook format they use. I
