Hi, and welcome to the forum.
I know I'm sounding like a broken record, but please take some time to search the forum before starting a new topic. It gets annoying (and messy) having to see basically the exact same posts here every single day.
For a eBooks and audio books, try ReadM, it's freeware.
As for Nintendo/GB(C) emulation, I wouldn't suggest it, IMO those emulators are all pretty lousy. PicoDrive (Sega Megadrive/Genesis) however is excellent. And btw, PicoDrive is also freeware. You can find the latest version in the Series 60/N-Gage News Section of this forum.
And if you're wondering how to install those apps, have a look at the 'F A Q!!' (first topic on this page).
Have a nice day/weekend.
I disagree, the GBC emulator is very good quality. Gameplay is full speed, although the sound isn't great at all.

What GBC game runs in full speed?

sounds near enough the same to me compaired to original n-gage, you will not get stereo sound. It would probably produce the same sound as 6600, 7560, 3650

Its possible because of the developers.The ones who designed PicoDrive - the genesis emu used a really optimized ARM ASM core and are pure geniuses the ones who designed while the ones who designed GoBoy used an not so optimized C++ core and are really really smart(Not pure geniuses)
QD or Original N-gage, buy a case for it 2.
I am currently using the N-Gage to listen to my audio books. I rip the CDs myself with Alto MP3 Maker using 96kb compression and they sound superb.
I am using some inexpensive Coby headphones with the Nokia ADA-2 adaptor cable, I am certain that the relativly large drivers in my headphones provide a boost to the sound quality.
I recently upgraded from the Nokia 3300 (USA version) where I was forced to use the Nokia HDS-3H stereo headset which is not only overpriced ($35 vs. $8 for my Coby headphones) but cumbersome to use because of the silly Nokia POP port it uses.
The sound quality of my N-Gage setup is much better that my Nokia 3300 setup ever was.
YewNes works good enough for me but I play it without sound cause that sucks.
