Yesterday, someone mentioned to me, that people have been queuing up for 
the new iphone...it suddenly dawned on me why there was obsessive chatter 
on Friday night about iphones. Though, I was surprised to learn, you need 
to download an app to preview books from the iBookstoer...which killed the 
chatter about iPhones.

In a parallel universe, I have also been trying to ascertain whether eBooks 
in ePub format can be read in the apple environment and
apparently,  they display perfectly on half a dozen different viewers and 
even one that failed on Friday!
So, it would seem Apple users could buy e-books, such as mine, from Lulu 
rather than the Apple store:

Another little snippet, I picked up yesterday was apparently, there are 
some issues with the maps on the new iPhone. Is this going to be the 
"killer app" from Samsung/Google?
