Google Books for iPhone adds 1.5 million reading choices to iPhone/iPod touch

We went on a Google News strike yesterday (every day more Apple-Google news!!) but this one is a bit too good to pass up.  Google Mobile Book search is now available for iPhone (and Android).  We'll let Google go from here:

Over 1.5 million public domain books in the US (and over half a million outside the US) are now available for perusing on iPhone and Android devices. Just go to books.google.com/m in your mobile browser. You can search for a title, author, or subject. Or you can browse the list of "Featured books" and various categories like business and economics, the classics, science and math, travel, and more. Once you've picked out a book or two, you can easily get back to your selections by clicking on the "Recently viewed books" under the "My books" section.
