I was amazed at the VitalSource way of presenting the books....
Everything looks perfectly typeset, but yet you can "flip"
through the book in the same way you would "flip" through a very
long web page in your web browser. And best of all, whenever I
have my tablet with me, my books are just a swipe away.
