Kindle/Kindle_app/Flipkart_app/e-book_reader_app are somewhat irrelevant for me when it comes to reading books in the local languages. There is a tremendous lack of books and, this makes the usage of the devices a bit limited for me (even though I am staggering under a load of books and, lack of bookshelf space) -- sankarshan mukhopadhyay <https://twitter.com/#!/sankarshan>
