I still remember my school times, although I did not study decades before, but our generation had to carry heavy weighed backs, setting up our school bags every night as per schedule and the back pain we had to bear at times. When grew up and joined high school, I remember how conscious I became about each and every minute of mine. And then things started irritating me; if I had to wait for my turn in the hospital I start calculating how much I would have studied in this time period. If I had to attend some boring receptions, weddings or any such gathering I try to find out any reading material around me. If I had to travel for some long time, I had to keep my favorite book with me so that I can make an intelligent use of my time. And the motive behind all these acts was to satisfy my thirst for knowledge. No more sufferings now! No more waste of time because the iBooks app in your i-gadget will now cater your thirst. Enjoy your reading material as it is easily accessible and always available. Download the iBooks appfrom the App Store and fill your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad library with books from the iBookstore. Take your collection with you, where ever and whenever you want.
