How does the iPhone app work? Does it just download the page view from Logos' site? Does it work like Google books? My fear with the iPhone app before it came out was that it would be too large of a program and would take up space on my iPhone. But the iPhone app is actually incredible small.

    It works really nice and it is small. I would not mind however to have it few GB big, just to have the off-line option. They still are working on securing the permissions for many books. I would like to have highlighting and notes function added in some future release of the program.

    P.S. It is not like scanned Google books. Nothing like that. It is real thing. You see the book the way you see it in Logos. It is really great.

    It downloads a number of pages at a time. A simple click to the left or right of the screen will move to the next page.

    You can easily bring up the table of contents by tapping on the top of the screen.

    But, be aware, there are problems with access to many resources due to licensing issues. It's also only a first release....
