Ebook readers will soon average in the $200-$250 range about 1/4 the price of what tablets are about to price at. 2. Tablets will not use e-ink technology and reading books on a backlit device is not the same … Who's Going to Develop an Ideal Academic eBook Reader? 14 Years Ago by Techwriter10 On the face of it, you would think eBook Readers would be perfect for an academic setting, but according to a [URL="http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/28/kindle-dx-called-poor-excuse-of-an-academic-tool-in-princeton/"]post on Engadget[/URL] this week, Princeton students participating in a pilot program were unhappy with the Kindle DX's … German Book Publishers Cool to eBook Market 14 Years Ago by Techwriter10 In a story this week by [URL="http://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/0,1518,655422,00.html"]German news magazine Der Spiegel[/URL], I was surprised to learn that German book publishers are actively avoiding the eBook market, fearing it will eat into their print publishing business, instead of seeing it as an obvious new market for … Are eBook Readers Moving Beyond Books? 14 Years Ago by Techwriter10 When interface guru Jakob Nieslen reported on the [URL="http://www.useit.com/alertbox/kindle-usability-review.html"]Kindle 2 [/URL]usability last March, he pointed out it was great for books, but not much other content. Why is this significant? Two recent reports suggest that the eBook Reader could move beyond a simple device for reading … Re: Are eBook Readers Moving Beyond Books? 14 Years Ago by john3k Whether a Apple eBook exists or not, Amazon Kindle, or Sony eBook, the important topic to discuss and determine is the access to the ebooks or similar content in general. The reason I hesitate to get a Kindle is due to the closed eco-system of the Kindle system, which makes Amazon the gatekeeper in that case. I rather my hardware is not so tied… Re: Are eBook Readers Moving Beyond Books? 14 Years Ago by Techwriter10 I actually wrote about the need for an open eBook standard recently in this blog: [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/news/story220680.html"]Amazon Shows Need for Open eBook Standards[/URL] Thanks for the comment.

So it might not be a conventional eBook as we've come to know it, but the definition is definitely a moving target at this point. Ron Re: Are eBook Readers Already Obsolete? 14 Years Ago by S Liu I think that both reader and apple tablet will parallel exit. It is similar to the case of desktop and laptop.

Re: Are eBook Readers Already Obsolete? 14 Years Ago by ronet Quote: "If you think about it, we began to solve the problem of carrying multiple devices with the iPhone." Not really.

As a standalone phone, the iPhone actually sucks. As a PDA its pretty average. Re: Are eBook Readers Already Obsolete? 14 Years Ago by Techwriter10 I have to disagree with both of you. It's a full fledged computer any way you slice it. Palm certainly got the ball rolling, but it couldn't do everything the iPhone can.

Did they give people back the eBooks that Amazon stole from them? As far as open eBook formats, we already have them. ODF will work just fine, or even (gasp) plain old text files.
