Kobo has released a new updated version of its iPad/iPhone app that removes the ability to shop at Kobo’s ebookstore from within the app.  This is to comply with Apple’s current rules.  Otherwise Kobo would have had to give a 30 percent cut to Apple of any books sold through the app.  Now you will need to fire up the browser and point it to Kobo.com to buy ebooks from your iDevice.

The update also adds a news feed that provides Kobo related news and promotions.  There is now a small megaphone beside the Reading Life icon at the top of the library screen that you can tap to access this feature.
