Apple’s Mysterious New York Event Is Just About Books?

TechCrunch has an anonymous source in their ear, saying this month’s alleged Apple powwow is all about iBooks.

TC’s Alexia Tsotsis says the event “will not involve any hardware at all and instead will focus on publishing and eBooks (sold through Apple’s iBooks platform)” and be “industry-oriented.” This sounds rather dull, but could potentially mean new publisher deals and a wider library to choose from. We’ll see! [TechCrunch]

      “It doesn’t matter how good or bad the product is, the fact is that people don’t read anymore,” “Forty percent of the people in the U.S. read one book or less last year. The whole conception is flawed at the top because people don’t read anymore.” – Steve Jobs on e-book readers.
