Then, I'd point out: who wants to carry around an ADDITIONAL device to read books when on the go? With the iPhone, you have the phone, the business tools, the games, and the books all in one package. You can use it for the purpose at hand in a flash and put it away nicely in your pocket. Try doing that with a Nintendo DS and a phone and a PIM. Try doing it with the Kindle and a phone and a PIM and a computer and a BIG case to carry it all around in. Not to sound like too much of an Apple fanboy, but Apple really hit it out of the park with the iPhone. I agree with all the comments above.

Judging by that screenshot, it would get a little annoying how you would have to flip pages every 3 sentences. @raena

I am probably quite spoiled by my iPod touch, though. I think the DS would need a much nicer resolution in order to be a comfortable reader. I am probably quite spoiled by my iPod touch, though.
