    I came across this recently, the YouVersion Bible (online). If you join, you can write comments and views on scripture passages. I have not joined but may do so. This is new so I can't tell you what it's like.

    Does anyone here know about this already?

    Never heard of it before. It looks interesting. There are several English Bible translations available for reading.

    You can get it on the iPhone apps store and they even have a small number of translations you can download to your iPhone for offline access.

    I'd suggest that might be an important point, for this.

    I feel so 'lucky.'

    They were released here in July, between Father's Day and my birthday I told everyone, 'No gifts, money only :)' and my carrier had a rel good plan.

    Almost embarrassed to me a missionary with an iPhone :), but so far I REALLY enjoy it.

    I feel funny going to a meeting and when the guy does a devotion I pull out my phone. Not preaching out of it...yet :)

    Oh, don't be embarrassed... I don't have a iphone, but I carry my pocket PC to meetings...

    And I have preached out of it... at a youth camp before...
    The backlight really helps at campfire services as well...

    I am checking out youversion now...
    Thanks.

    Covet covet covet... I want an iphone so bad. Maybe someday... to many other pressing needs to justifying buying one now.

    Nice web site by the way. I noticed they have 3 Spanish Bibles to choose from but do not have the 1960 Reina Valera which happens to be the most popular Spanish translation in use today.
