Google Book Search comes to iPhone/Android, Kindle be warned

Google launched its mobile site for Book Search loading your mobile device with 1.5 million books. There is some drawback though, the scanned pages don’t actually appear readable enough to make going through the books easy, then it’s impossible to find any book (for free) that a little less older than a century. No matter how bad that be, one thing is clear the smart-phones are fast adopting the eBook reader tag and chance are that if these eBook reading apps get any better Kindle may be up facing tough rivals, that aren’t confined to the book reading category. I mean who would buy a Kindle if one can read books, play games, talk and browse on iPhone? Or Android for that matter.
