nothing gay about that. i've read more than my fair share of books anything from fantasy to romance, sci-fi, religion, documentaries. god knows i'll read almost anything. if you don't mind a good triumphs over evil theme, Ted Dekker is the way to go. Yes, he's a christian author, but he's not the kind to throw it in your face. it's simply, good triumphs over evil with a little bit of religion thrown in. if you're not quite for that, Tom Clancy is another great author... specifically his book Without Remorse. absolutely captivating. yes tom clancy is most known for splinter cell and ghost recon, but his novels are beyond compare.

omg yes. both are definately badass. i prefer 20000 leagues but moby dick is cool as shit.

I need to get an ebook reader on my Blackberry. I have points in the day where i can read but I never remember to bring a book. If it was on my phone i'd probably be a reading beast...

they have those? cool. Ive been looking for a place online where I can read books, kinda like a e-library so far not so good

I imagine that reading a book on a Blackberry would suck, just like reading a book on any other electronic device sucks.

Can the Blackberry display any kind of local files? You can get ebooks in plain text, PDF, Microsoft Word, HTML, and dozens of other formats. Classics are easily found at Project Gutenberg (not in all of those formats, though you can convert).

Here's "A Tale Of Two Cities" in plain text:

awesome thanks, Im about to start reading it today

**stonehenge** · 05-27-2009, 01:27 AM

My BB can open plain text and word documents but I'm in the process of looking for a PDF reader since PDFs are usually organized a lot nicer. I actually got a shitload of stephen king pdfs today

Unfortunately I might have to buy the pdf viewer for my BB

Edit: and the screen on my new Storm is fairly large and the resolution is great, I can comfortably read the screen. I might also get a reader for my iPod touch instead and it will be my portable library lol
