To be perfectly honest, reading on an iPhone is a little like browsing through those tiny novelty books they sell as impulse buys at the front of bookstores. It’s clumsy and hard on the eyes, but on the upside, it can fit in your front shirt pocket. And while those tiny hardback books mainly stick to funny photos of cats or poems about friendship, the offerings for the iPhone and other mobile devices are becoming nearly unlimited. These days, you can find magazines, Pride and Prejudice, or the latest hot paperback thriller, all as downloadable content. With all that in mind, our sister publication Boldtype gave three iPhone e-reader applications — the Google, Kindle, and Classics apps — a test drive. Read the results after the jump.
