Description
Catalog your personal library at home or in the store (not a book reader). Book Mobile will scan the ISBN barcode, look up the book in your google.books.com library. You can add it. You can read reviews & ratings, compare at Amazon, or follow the menu links to more information.

A very useful app. Would be good to select which Amazon site it gets prices from. I'm in England and want to use Amazon.co.uk

Cataloging book collection is great. Wish app was 50% smaller, v1.8 is protected and can not be moved to sd card. Tmobile g1, android 2.2

Talk about minimalist. Absolutely NO features other than listing what books you have added. Be sure to rate and price shop before you add!

Very useful. Great idea, decent implementation. Needs better Google Books integration, UI could be nicer. Sprint HTC Hero 2.1

I guess it does what it says. Don't see any point in it

Half the books I enter say "not one book found, but 2" and does nothing more, at leash show me the 2 that are found and let me choose the correct one.

Other book scan apps can I.d. book by barcode. Not this one. Manual key in of isbn #'s. Royal pain. Not an issue w/brand new books I guess.

Good, free. I recommend you try it! Some odd edge cases (two books under same ISBN for LotR?). Multi-scanning experience could be streamlined. Thanks!
