Making a copy of the book without the boring parts is illegal. This is what I think Instapaper does.

It's perfectly legal if you do it for your own personal use.

Instapaper does it for commercial use. If the iPhone app does it client side, then it is probably legal. If it's server side, probably not.

HTTP proxies that modify content are legal. How is this not an HTTP proxy?
