Fans of all things technological who love to read will be pleased to hear e-books have come to South Africa.

Kalahari.net is launching the E-book, short for 'electronic book', nationwide.

Bookworms will be able to speed click their way through their favourite novels, either on their PCs or cell phones.

Whilst software can be downloaded for free, each cyber book needs to be paid for.

Spokesperson Gary Hadfield said readers are in for a real treat.

"The exciting part is when you download these electronic versions you can? have a library that we?ve launched, a digital library, where you can go and access read and literally page through your products on the screen."
