Then you can make your personal e-reader 1000% more awesome by buying a copy of my science-fiction novel Edge of Infinity, now available in ePub format!

I talked a little bit about what ePub is and how I made an ePub version here and here.

ePub. It's what's for breakfast!

Ah damn, I knew I forgot something. My sister is visiting from San Fran, and usually I get my sisters to buy me books from Amazon before they come here. I was gonna tell my sister to buy my your book. Ah well, when I go to the US I shall buy it there. I don't think Amazon delivers to HK. :p

I read books on my Blackberry using Mobipocket Reader. It's everything I've ever wanted in a reader. I used to read books on my old Palm Pilots as well. Tried once on a Windows Mobil device and hated it - it was trying to be "too much" if that makes any sense (it was a Dell Axim running Windows Mobile 5 or something like that).

I'm torn between getting an iPhone or a Blackberry 9700 in May when my phone credit gets applied.
