hi, is this phone good for mobile ebook reading? (.jar/.jad files). Has anybody tried?

I wanna purchase this 'coz it really looks good and probably just use it for simple texts and heavy ebook reading. (& no i don't want a kindle)

I purchased this phone 3 weeks to replace my W890i (which got fried in a freak accident) temporarily, however from the get go I had problems.
CONS:
1)Incoming call volume is very bad, or else I'm going deaf at a very young age
2)Battery life is very poor
3)Camera is difficult to figure out
4)Due to a packing issue I receive fong kong earphones didnt even have a sony ericsson logo or nothing on which took a while to sort out
5) Signalling problems are rife, I'm unfortunate enough to live in a valley, so I constantly have to run around to find the perfect spot. (However I had the same problem with my W890i as well :( )

PROS
1) The internet access is great when its working
2) For those of you looking for games go to www.mobiles24.com and search under I think 128*160 games
3) Mixit works on here for the South African users
4) The phone is reasonably priced and available at Ackermans for R689.00
5) It has a handy torch if you are stuck in the dark

My overall assessment with this model you need time to figure out how the camera & video works. However if I had to choose again I would purchase it as it suits my needs as a cheap (emphasis on cheap) phone with various features such as radio, internet which are my key criteria

A great little phone with many positive and suprising features such as a camera light and a terrific equalizer in the Mp3 player. Also having some games etc loaded is a terrific touch. The phone is great to use, has a very clear display and the keyboard when at first looks seems a little different (keys being in rows) is clear and precise to use when dialling and writing SMS messages. Battery life is good and the camera quality is positively suprising for a 2 megapixel unit. All in all a great phone that also looks terrific, something that one can expect from Sony Ericsson.

I bought this phone yesterday and some missing options as compare to NOKIA

#Zoom option is not available with still image photo also quality of picture/video is not good.
#You can not make the phone silent for incoming calls
#You can not set the time period for automatic phone lock
#For me hands free channel button was not working.
I will check further for another options and update it here ...
Overall I am not satisfied with this phone.Since I bought it for my home use so its OK...but if you are buying this phone for camera and music than I will say better to go with any other model.

Only advantage of this phone is it has rich look and somehow good sound outtput.
