Here are some sample  free eBook libraries which contain content deliverable though the cell phone. These resources use a Java format for displaying the eBook in the phone. Download the book files and then sync them to your cell phone. Usually these applications will run in the applications or games section of your cell phone.  Depending on the library the file can be either single or multiple books. For more on a project that I did with cell phone ebooks see: Using the Cell Phone for Class Content: An Exploration [Paper | Presentation | Samples]
