[QUOTE=Dreohboy;1807]Same thing I use my iPod Touch for, but on a bigger and better screen.
Stanza should be on iPad.
I have not used Stanza before, looked it up and it looks great, but I am wondering if we won't be able to do all these things with the iBooks app on the iPad. I can't see Apple blocking all the book reading apps on the AppStore so you had to do use iBooks.
So if iBooks will do all the things Stanza does ie search all the locations for the download of fee books and free books I would be much more likely to buy a book from them and have 1 less program do deal with.
It all depends on the iBooks interface and the cost and availability of content. If you can't download the free content from various sources then it may not be as big a hit.
Jeez I wish they would give us some hints.
To come to think of it, ill probably use it for to show off. Leave it in my room and say....yeah i got one.:P
I can't wait to surf the web on it. And, I think that ebook reading will be fantastic. I just hope that it will be easy to transfer ebooks I already have (DRMless thank God and Python scripts) to the device.
Yeah I think I will read a lot more books than I do now when the iPad comes out :)
Me too i hope to read more book with the Ipad, as the choice is more large , also that will help me as i am perpetual expat ....
I am going to replace my laptop and use it for everything. I love to read, I enjoy Twittering and Facebook. As well as emailing my kids. I love to sit with my little ipod and do so many things and this will be a wonderful replacement for that. I will be able to see this with my old eyes. I love all kinds of apps. I cant wait.
Will the iPad for email, movies, games, magazines, surf the internet.
Show off photos and home movies.
