Google has made a selection of "full view" books available in a format suitable for mobile browsers such as Safari on iPhone. Comparing the mobile title to the regular Google Book
Search version, it appears they did OCR on the books.<p>This doesn't work well for technical titles. They had to fall back to images for equations, and tables are not formatted properly. The result is often unreadable. Consider:<p><a href="http://books.google.com/googlebooks/mobile/#Read?id=pIlCAAAAIAAJ&page_num=15" rel="nofollow">http://books.google.com/googlebooks/mobile/#Read?id=pIlCAAAA...</a><p><a href="http://books.google.com/googlebooks/mobile/#Read?id=uU1WAAAAMAAJ&page_num=53" rel="nofollow">http://books.google.com/googlebooks/mobile/#Read?id=uU1WAAAA...</a><p>Kindle is not much better in this regard, although their QA is better.
