    Info Free books for iPhone/iPad

    OK came across this on SinfuliPhone :

    You need to use Stanza for this.

    Just add http://www.drinkmalk.com/books/list.xml to your book sources in Stanza. You can call the source whatever you want.
    Once saved you can access the source and Viola you have a shit load of books that you can download directly to your idevice. Just d'loaded all of David Gemmells books which I do own on Hard/Paperback anyway !

    Happy days

    alot of the o'reilly and technical books inc the dummies series are all available via binsearch.info once you've grabbed them install Calibre and you can convert them to your format of choice,

    also if you want to grab these but dont want them for the iphone but for something else like the kindle (thats the reason I grabbed them) you can download them by clicking through the links above and again using something like Calibre you can convert them and or upload them to your device

    EDIT I forgot to add, you can only grab 20 per day, change your IP and you can go back and grab 20 more and so on and so on lol
