I feel the same way, so much more convenient with the smartphone. I use both my iPad and iPhone since I can sync all books in both devicesHummingbird74 wrote:I do 90% of my reading on my smartphone. The other 10% is a physical copy. I love my smartphone to read in bed. So much easier than holding a book and a light.

I also read Dracula on my phone. I'd rather read A)Hardcover, B)Trade, 3)Mass market, 4)Kindle, 5)my phone.
I read a book on my phone today because I was too lazy to take the Kindle out of my bag while waiting for my daughter to get off work!
I'm currently reading one on the Kindle, one trade in the car, a book on my computer at work and a forth on my phone!
Back to the question- I will read on my phone, but only when I'm too lazy for a different option.

Me too! And I love the instant gratification too...no trips to the book store or library only to find out the title you're looking for isn't there.

It's definitely different, I'll tell you that.
I use the same program (Moonbooks+) to read on my phone, so that wasn't different (I've also had some luck with Aldiko). I actually found myself reading more. Instead of doing stupid games on my phone when I'm bored and without my tablet (which is often because it doesn't fit well in my purse) I found myself reading. I got through two more books this week than is typical for me. Plus, as mentioned before it's lightweight, has some great backlight features and is really easy to use.
I can't wait to get my tablet replaced/fixed, but in the meantime I'm actually enjoying it on my phone a lot more than I thought I would.
