Here's where it gets interesting.

iBooks, new app very similar to iTunes.  5 major publishers  (Penguin, Harper Collins, Simon and Schuster, MacMillan and Hachette) have books available for download starting today.

Unnecessary...with the iPhone OS compatibility it already has access to Barnes and Noble and Amazon.

Not unnecessary for Apple - this way they get to cut out the middleman.  :shifty:

I'm not familiar with Apple products; could you put a wireless card on something like this?

Comes with "n" wireless, I'm still expecting a cellphone tie-in.

I meant HSDPA/HSUPA (or EvDo) for mobility.

Nothing announced, but I'd bet money on there being something.

Anyone who would buy this piece of junk deserves the expense.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.
