Choose Your Own Adventure comes to iPod

Remember those Choose Your Own Adventure books you read as a kid? I wasn't much of a reader in elementary school, but I did read The First Olympics by Ben Baglio. For some reason, I actually remember reading this particular book (it only took me a few minutes browsing the Wikipedia entry for "Choose Your Own Adventure" to find this story. Remembering I read it has nothing to do with remembering what happened in the book. Plus, I'd have to retrace the adventure I chose when I read the book long ago. (This book sounds like a lot more work as I think about it.)

Anyway, it appears that the Choose Your Own Adventure books have turned towards the iPod for distribution. A sample book The Abominable Snowman is available as a free download
until January 25, 2007. However, according to the website, it appears that you need to have a newer iPod with a color screen and possibly the ability to display photos to read the books.
