Go to Vitasource bookshelf on "play store" (android 4) or whatever it is on android 2.3. Log in using your log in details as used on pc and follow instructions for downloading to your phone/tablet. Then download the books individually, latest version will be downloaded.
I've got it all onto my Samsung Galaxy Note which makes reading the text easy especially when rotated to landscape mode. No need to carry books or laptop round. Brilliant!

I've got the electronic industrial package for less than £300.00 on my office PC and find it pretty easy to use. Do you really need to have the regs and all the GN's etc on your phone, will it improve your social standing down the pub tonight?

Viital Source is an app that facilitates downloads of books to phones etc, it does not provide them for free unless its been hacked. You would have already have to of had to buy the regs in digital format first.

You pay the IET for the electronic version you want, they send you an authorisation code to download the vital source program to your PC, once it's installed you download the publications you've paid for.You get email notifications of updates. It's easy on the PC. I'm not sure if it would be that easy to read on a phone or tablet you can highlight and add notes etc and print sections if required. I guess they've now developed it for tablets/phones etc for forum users who can't bare to leave home without a regs book. Might be useful if you bump into DC down your local though.

Well I have a think pad which does me - and a very old mobile phone that also does me - it's not that I don't use the technology, just that i can't be bothered to adopt every possible gizmo that puts work right in my face - 24/7/365 - so no, I won't be the one pulling out the iPad - I'll be the one listening carefully to what's said and making the notes the old fashioned way with a real pen in my site notebook -
