Google Books
Honeycomb and Ice Cream Sandwich tablets come with Google Books already built into the tablet. You can think of this as the Google equivalent to Apple’s iBook format. Google Books can be purchased through your Google Checkout account using the same Android Market you use to purchase apps.
Google Books is several things. It is a website (http://books.google.com) that lets you search a vast library of scanned books. At this site, you can shop for books and create your own public profile that shares a list of books you’re reading and reviews of books you’ve read.
