I recently wrote a post about ebooks, mentioning it’s a good idea to start a collection of them.  I also mentioned the Kindle ebook reader, although I don’t have one yet and am waiting for the 2009 version.  Now I may not have to get one at all.

Tim Berry advises:

“The iPhone now has an application that they say (read the article at HuffingtonPost) is cooler than the Kindle for reading ebooks. And I bought the iPhone. But I also bought the Kindle. Gulp.

Oh dear … now my iPhone is cannibalizing my Kindle. It’s bad enough to be a gadget lover/early adapter adopter and all, but now the one is making the other obsolete. That’s bad for my rationalizations when I get the latest and greatest. Say it isn’t so!”

Thanks to Tim, now I will put the elegant eReader app on my iPhone and I may be able to forget dreaming of the Kindle.  Will test it out and let you know in a subsequent post.

If you’ve experience both the iPhone and the Kindle, please write in and share your views with the rest of us.

Thanks!
