100 SciFi Stories and more ... E-Books!

Great example of how E-Books are taking off on Mobile Devices. Check out this new app that was shared with us via Twitter: http://twitter.com/vanishingpoint/statuses/10001933239 ... Thanks @Vanishingpoint! Further research on this resource from, "http://www.288vroom.com/" shows that they have more short stories besides Science Fiction as well. Wow ... there is a lot of content there!

Description: 100 SciFi Stories is a huge library of out of this world Science Fiction stories you will love and ONLY SciFi. With currently 100 stories (and more on the way) including Short Stories, Novelettes, and Full-Length Novels, 100 SciFi Stories will keep you reading for light years to come. As you look over this app, I would like to hear back from you on the quality of the app and your thoughts on E-Books as well. Why would you buy a Kindle or Nook when you get can get all of those books and more with their iPhone / Touch App?
