In case you haven't heard, Ebsco has mobile applications for iPhone and Android devices. When I played with it at home, I was able to search our ebschohost dbs and didn't even need to log in (I was told that I'd been given a "nine month key"). It worked very nicely, including "settings" to choose databases and limit to FT, though I did not see a way to get into the full text of ebooks.
Getting and activating the app -
1) Open any ebsco database, scroll to the bottom of the page
2) Click on the link "ebscohost for iPhone and Android" to email an access key to yourself
3) Download the free ebsco app from whichever source you usually use for apps - iTunes if you have an iPhone or Android Market if you use an Android device.
4) Once you have the app, open your email on your device and finish following the instructions (for me there was one button to press)
Ebsco is providing help files for each app, too
Happy searching :)
