Want eBooks? Will JPEG-Books Be OK?
Posted by Damion Chaplin in "Zune Content Creation & Management" @ 06:00 PM
"JPEGBook is a third party program which will automatically convert your text into a JPEG file suitable within the Zune dimensions. Now that’s called original! I’m not too sure on what to do with books that seem a bit too long, but I’m sure that if you can cope with reading hundreds of JPEGs, such quantities won’t be a problem. Also, some flair or excitement could be added to the whole deal, but I’m sure that such a program will continue to develop further."
Hmmm, interesting, though I can't imagine scrolling through a 300-page (I mean 300-JPEG) book using this. It is, however, quite imaginitive, and for someone who just can't get enough ebooks, this may be just the thing. Though I would venture that anyone that into ebooks probably already has a full-functioned ebook reader (like a Pocket PC). Any ebook fans here want to give it a spin? You can download it here (it's about 1/4 down the Japanese-only page).
