Book service in doubt for UK iPad

here we go again...

Just like Apple, couldn't give a toss for anyone outside the US. Everyone spouting on about how they have the content and the licence agreements in place to make a difference. But, only if you're in the US. I think people in the UK and other European countries should just boycott their products and become more innovative ourselves.

Wow, fantastic product.

Even a die-hard Apple fan has got to admit the iPad is a terrible product.

It not even a jack of all trades let alone a master of anything at all.

Just another reason...

...for not getting the device. Personally, I saw potential that didn't materialise.

patience

surely this is like saying the 3g model won't be available in the UK, because no carriers are yet signed up to it. The product was announced yesterday, with two months before release. its a bit early to make definitive statements. its like the ipad speculators have suddenly got nothing to do and feel the need to start writing non-news stories

It's a bit more than that thirdbrother3. The US site shows off all of the iBooks features. No other country's site even mentions iBooks. Any iBook information has been removed

Here we go again...

Yesterday this very site was reporting that some Apple European sites had nothing about the iPad on them. Today, they have the information that was 'missing'. Who's betting that, as iBookstore is (currently) tied to the iPad, there will be information about it closer to, or on, the iPad release date?

Just like all Apple products...

...they have their flaws and who would have guessed their success since their launch way back in 2001. Because we don't all live in the same country we can't have all the same toys or the same apps due to licensing agreements and copyright.

It's all too easy these days to sit back and moan about manufacturers but go back 10 years and today's technology will look god like in status.
