Want to read ebooks from the comfort of your iphone or ipod touch? Well, you can download Stanza -a free application you can use to download from an online catalog of thousands of ebooks. Stanza supports most e-book formats and is a stylish, convenient and highly functional program. It allows you to browse your personal library by book cover pictures and customize things like the fonts and colors. So, if you're looking to for an ebook reader solution for your iphone or ipod touch; here's what you do...

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • An iphone or ipod
  • A computer with mac os or windows xp sp2 or vista
  • Enough free memory for download
  • An internet connection
  1. Step 1

    First, go to the official lexcycle site (there is a link below for your convenience.)

  2. Step 2

    From the lexcycle sites main page, scroll down until you see where it says, 'Stanza Download now' and click the link to be redirected to the downloads page.

  3. Step 3

    Next, choose your operating system/ interface of your choice from the available list.

  4. Step 4

    Now, make sure before downloading that your operating system is compatible with the software. If you aren't sure, click the 'support' link at the top of the screen.

  5. Step 5

    Follow the instructions for download/use. If you have any trouble running the software or transferring your ebooks from your computer to your iphone or ipod touch, check the 'FAQ' section link at the top of the screen. The software for some windows operating systems is still in beta (at this time) and has a few small bug issues which is pretty normal and is being improved with each release it seems. So, if you experience any issues be on the look out for new releases or fixes.
