Reading a book on my mobile’s tiny screen was a bit weird at first, but I got used to it fast. Pressing the * key gives you a “full screen” view and it’s almost as good as an ebook reading device. Holding the mobile at a 10 cm distance from my eyes I didn’t have any difficulty reading the 7 point font size. There’s not much formatting in mobipocket ebooks. Just bold letters and no italics. The chapter titles are given in a bigger font size.
Lizzy writes about reading a book on her mobile of all things ! Interesting though it sounds, I dislike reading books online, so I doubt I’d like this. [Hat tip: Meera]

I’ve read a thousand pages or so on the computer screen, books not available in India. That’s how I could easily move to mobile reading. Believe me, you’ll get used to it after a few screens!
