, wireless network and easy access to any books
are the main trend of e-readers.
Jeff Bezos, the CEO of Amazon intended to make Kindle do what books can’t do. The
Kindles allow users to change font size and look up words with built-in dictionary, as well
as let them make annotations, highlight key passages and bookmark pages for further use.
The audio book and Read-to-Me Feature enhance users reading experience. The wireless
connection makes the Kindle works independently so that users have no restraint to go to
online bookstore, browse for books, check out personal recommendations, read reader
reviews and post new ones. Thanks to the wireless connection, Kindle works as a basic
web browser that can help users to look up things in Wikipedia, search via Google and

than 100,000 titles, and about half of them are free. The iTunes store provides audio
books and App Store Books section which benefit the users as well. Free application, easy
download and cheap prices of e-books for cell phone make the reading so convenient for
Smartphone users. Some book publishers view the mobile-book as a way to attract new
readers, e.g. those who don’t walk to a bookstore or go to online bookstore. The market
has great potential, as Analysts estimate that fewer than 1 million e-readers were sold
since the devices were introduced, but 36.5 million smartphones which are capable of
