Didn't like it. I mean why would would I want to carry around yet another device?
But the two real reasons I didn't like it:
First off, the text is justified and when you increase the zoom it can look 'orrible. You can't change the paragraph format.
And then of course, it doesn't smell of books. Still I could try this.

PediaBooks are now offering a service whereby Wiki pages (could be WikiPedia) can be gathered together and printed (POD) as a book.

This web site is a kind of depository for all the things about getting stuff onto the web.
