Fictionwise Hits the iPhone, E-Books Hit the Big Time

Along with today's release of Apple's 3G iPhone and the new iPhone application store, found in iTunes v. 7.7 and iPhone 2.0 software, Fictionwise has become the first major e-book retailer to offer free e-book software for Apple's iPhone.

We all know Fictionwise as the world's largest e-book retailer, and now they have their e-books ready for the world's most famous touchscreen device. Before today, you had to hack your iPhone to run unsupported e-book software that was both risky and limited. Also, there were no stores that promoted the use of such software for your purchased e-books. But now Fictionwise is set to conquer the iPhone with their eReader software, which lets you carry your Fictionwise library everywhere you take your phone.


The best part is that it's a free download through the iTunes application store. The next best thing is that all of E-Reads' Multiformat e-books at Fictionwise are supported by the application!

There are other ebook options and more coming soon for the iPhone. In the future, Adobe and Mobipocket will be hitting the iPhone in a powerful way and hopefully that will bring even more digital e-book content to the world's fingertips. Until then, Fictionwise is your best and safest bet for good reading on the iPhone.
