Oh... that's cool.

I would have removed some of that Shakespeare and added HG Wells though.

I'll confess. I only read one entire book on my own from start to finish when I was in 5th grade called House on Hackman's Hill and that's it lol. The rest I either read some chapters or read out loud with my class. I remember in high school my classmates would use sparknotes.com to get the summaries off the books you were forced to read in school lol! Ahh .... good times. Anyway this is good for people who want to read alot of books on the go but I'm sure some might argue that it doesn't feel like a book in your hands or something unless you can hold the DS Ninja Gaiden DS style.

I should also point up, I used to use my PSP as an E-Reader using free texts from

http://www.gutenberg.org/wi...

A lot of those works are free due to copyright expiration.

Then I use Jpegbook to convert to jpeg to view on the PSP photo browser.

The DSi could probably use something similiar.

"Dude, what game are you playing on DS?"

"Well, it's not a game, I'm reading D1ckens"

"I'll give you some D1ckens"

"Please do"

"You're so lame! DS is for games!"
