Could an iPhone-like iPod revitalize the e-book market?
This raises an interesting development, as Teleread points out the e-book industry could take very good advantage of this. A no-phone iPhone would be a multi-media device with a big screen. Already iTunes has the ability to sort, tag, and display PDF files in the same revolutionary and easy-to-use manner as songs. Could this be applied to books and other text media?
The high resolution on the iPhone and large screen would lend itself well to emulating a page, and the simple and easy to use interface could host an e-book program, maybe even through iTunes. Since Apple is hoping to net a million sold, the e-book makers do not have to try and convince the public to buy yet another expensive e-book reader. The iPhone, or the next iPod refresh, will already be out there.
