iPad as an eReader
Personally I find that I am not using the iBook feature of the iPad that much. This might be due to my unwillingness to drop $10+ on an eBook. I’ve download a few free books, but I tend to surf my favorite web sites instead of reading another few pages from the free History of King Arthur. As an avid iPad user, I have yet to catch the ebook bug. Until I can check out an eBook from my local library, I don’t see the iPad replacing my printed books.
That said, I have seen an increase in my access of a web service called Books 24/7. I am a .Net programmer at my day job, and I can access many technical books through this service. Publishers such as Wrox and Apress make their books available through this service and I have a healthy back log of reading bookmarked in my account.
Do you find that you use your iPad as an eReader less than expected?
