Steve Jobs at the World Wide Developers Conference   no comments

Steve Jobs has been speaking at Apple’s World Wide Developers Conference 2010 in San Francisco.  Some items of interest re this blog:

  • 5 million ebooks downloaded on the iPad so far
  • A new version of iBooks should be out this month and will include note taking, one click bookmarking, and PDF compatibility
  • iBooks coming to the iPhone 4

Most of the rest of the presentation is about the new iPhone 4.

(via Yahoo News)

Update:  5 million ebooks downloaded works out to 2 1/2 ebooks per iPad.  This number is not broken down so we don’t know how many of these downloads are free books.  I imagine one of the first things many new iPad owners do is grab a few ebooks whether or not they intend to use the iPad heavily for reading.  It will be interesting to see if these numbers will maintain over a long period.
