Ebooks usually come in PDF formats so you’d need a Digital Photo Frame that supports PDF.
I actually found one for you but it’s quite expensive. Try googling Smartparts SP3200 32-Inch Digital Photo Frame. It’s huge and pricey but does the job
If you’re going to buy one make sure to ask if it reads PDF files!
Hope that helsp

i have been thinking of getting one for myself. i love to read, and i will be starting collage soon i hope, so i was just wondering if this might be a good investment. was also wondering if i can download text books on it as well?
thank you soooooo much, that does help. just might get me one now:)
I own a Kindle, and love it. It’s best features are the selection of reading material available, and the ease of downloading them. Books are also a lot cheaper on the Kindle than in the dead-tree version. That helps the budget a lot, except for the fact that it’s so much easier to get the books, so it’s really easy to buy more than you would in a bricks and mortar store and spend too much money. If you can take the hit of the initial cost, I’d recommend it.
Bear in mind, however, that the selection of textbooks available in Kindle format is limited – and you can’t sell them back at the end of the semester. Also, depending on the content of the textbooks, the Kindle may not be the best format for them. If they are graphics-heavy (like biology books), those pictures will not show up well, if they show up at all. It’s also harder to flip between sections. And if your teacher assigns an entire chapter at once, no problem, but if he tells you to read certain pages, there’s no way to find those specific pages on the Kindle.
Regardless of whether you use it for textbooks or not, it will be nice to be able to carry a lot of regular books with you without the extra weight. Good luck!
I am looking for a decent size screen. I don't want to buy a PDA and have to scroll down every 10 seconds because I'm finished reading the 3 inches of text it can display. It will soley be used for reading ebooks. Thanks.
I've been looking for something like that too and I've found Sony Reader to be the best choice. Take a look at the page to see it's features. The Ink Technology makes you feel like reading from paper. There is a link also on the page where you can buy it from.
