I’m happy to say that last week I downloaded my brand new Barnes and Noble eReader app for the iPhone and I’m loving it! Barnes and Noble recently launched one of the largest eBookstores around, with over 700,000 titles, including hundreds of new releases and bestsellers. eBooks cost as low as $9.99 and the variety is spectacular.

Barnes and Noble expects to have over 1 million titles within the next year, making it quite a worthy adversary to Amazon’s Kindle and the Sony eReader. Unlike the Amazon Kindle, you can download the Barnes and Noble eBooks on Macs, PCs, Blackberries, and iPhones — meaning you don’t have to drop a cool $299 on a reader like the Kindle to begin purchasing your books.

In related news, Samsung also just released its own eBook reader, the Samsung SNE-50K. Right now it’s only available in South Korea, but it should spread to international markets within the next year or two.
