The Electronic Reader Kindle Open the door of the Reading


In general, the electronic reader Kindle open the door, to bring you a new reading experience, And the ipad is going to come from the multi-function, let the people from the pure reading change to multimedia, because in addition to reading the text, you may also want to browse pictures, watching video and to interested content to add their own comments. And in both cost-effective on look, a single function of the Kindle seems to have looked a little expensive.

But for reading lovers said, ipad is not for their products, when reading novels, ipad back light screen, high prices, and battery life in a relatively short time will cause problems. Weight also is a problem, Kindle design goal is reading, the weight is less than 0.64 pounds ($290.3 g), and it is advantageous to holds in a single hand. For apple released iPad, Amazon spokesman Drew · Hector denner (Drew Herdener) said: "the user can in the iPhone, iPod Touch, PC reading Kindle ebooks and synchronization, we will also in the blackberry, Mac computers and iPad finish work on the same in the future. The Kindle design goal is reading.

Read from Your Take Control Account -- If you've ever bought an ebook through the Take Control shopping cart, you now have an account on the Take Control Web site (all aspects of our account management system are in public beta test right now). Accounts make it easier for our customers to see what they've bought, download purchased ebooks and free updates as zipped PDFs, access alternative format versions, and bring together upgrade and discount offers. GoodReader has another trick that can help you download PDFs from your Take Control Account directly. Follow the directions above for accessing an ebook's PDF via the Safari app and your Take Control account, and then - even while the PDF is still loading - enter a g at the very beginning of the URL in Safari's address field. To accomplish this trick, touch the URL to display a magnifying glass and slide your finger all the way to the left of the URL field, before http. Tap g, then tap Go. GoodReader opens and starts downloading the PDF.

Kindle ebook store

Amazon bookstore is natural far greater than Apple, with 450000 this pay, free books. It is worth noting that, Kindle store release books of total amount (88000 this) also slightly above iBooks store.

Relative to the iBooks speaking, iPad version of the Kindle program lack of beautiful animation, appear a bit boring. The pages about just sliding, the screen keyboard won't shows two pages at the same time, only display interface wide single page. Kindle the program does not allow users to change the font, only can adjust brightness and font size.to read PDF ebook on the iPad or kindle fire, you can try the PDF converter software to make PDF to ePub ebook.

Read PDFs in iBooks -- The most significant new feature in iBooks 1.1 is its support for PDFs. This addition is a nice step forward, making iBooks a far more capable book and document reader, given the broad adoption of PDF as a standard for electronic documents. Unfortunately, the process of bringing PDFs into the app is awkward and buggy.

iBooks

Of course, there are innumerable mediocre ways of reading a Take Control title, or any PDF, on any of Apple's iPhone OS devices. You can email it to yourself. You can store it on your iDisk or use the popular Dropbox service and app. You can use one of the many available document-reading apps. But all of these approaches - some of which require significant jumping through hoops to transfer the files - use the iPhone OS's built-in PDF viewer, which doesn't support clickable internal links, bookmarks, and more. It can be a frustrating experience with any PDF longer than a few pages.



It is expected that Apple can take out a more beautiful electronic reader program. IPad through an exquisite animation looks like the iBooks store program to switch to the bookshelf. Download the new reading and trying to read chapters will smoothly slide into the bookshelf with simulated 3 D image and text animation, the program itself's imitated perception of the book. After clicking the books in the bookshelf, it will turn over to the last time you open the page. In functional aspect, both choices can be decided by your demand. If you want to book add comments, Kindle program is the only choice. If you just want to read a book, the iBooks is also very good. IBooks and the Kindle store will become very close to the scrolls.

Although Kindle Fire and Nook Table all called the iPad killer, but according to some statistics to see, still can't shake the iPad dominance, of course, if don't consider the problem of the price, iPad natural is preferred, but as that "money is not the problem, the problem is not the money," most of the time, and the price had to consider,. This blog made an interesting comparison for iPad 2, Kindle Fire and Nook Table. The real advantage of Kindle program is you can read in more equipment, synchronous read books. For example you can at home or on the plane with the iPad reading, while waiting in line at the post office also can adopt iPhone to keep reading. Apple may launch iPhone version of future iBooks program, but before that the people who bought the Kindle books is wiser.

The Future of the ebook





Since most developers development ebook software can be operated in different equipment, such as the kindle can ipad, iphone and in computer operation, the consumer to the attention of equipment will be reduced, but will pay more attention to the ebook software user experience, electronic books across the equipment, and the visit of the portability all books directory.

But one thing that digital reading can't do: digital reading can't offer you feelings of family records. Ironically, a friend told me recently, he is like the Fran cen freedom ". This is the big hardback novel, so he read on the Kindle. But then he boundless, he wanted to have one, in your bookshelf, the future may recall reading feeling. So finally he bought paper books, although he has read this book, also never flip it felt a little strange, but he still felt very happy.  If you are a big fan of ebook reading, don't forget to enjoy the great joy of reading ebooks on your iPad. Well, maybe you have got a lot of ebooks in PDF format on your PC, but the ePub is the only ebook format iTunes and iPad accept. So you need to convert PDF to iPad format before reading, with the PDF converter software, we can easily transfer PDF ebook into kindle or iPad.

The spread of the ebook has come a point of confusion. Consumers should choose nook, kindle, SONY's reader or other ebook? Or should buy apple ipad, samsung galaxy TAB, other android tablet computer or simply use mobile phones to read ebooks? Just as ebook device, consumers may contribute to the confusion around a few winners of the rapid integration, because no one wants to "books video" type of equipment.





I don't know if I need to criticize reader, because as a reader, it has many of the avant-garde fans, this had to surprise. I know the critics point out: "you are very easy to mark your favorite quotation, also can search appear had words or phrases and paper books won't give you this convenience." More important is the new Kindle Fire tablet computer to before and totally different. But I found that the current version let a person feel absurd, Kindle Fire imitate book introduced to me some new reading experience appear too closely, Kindle Fire also seems to didn’t respect for the fun when reading paper books.

Maybe a little optimistic blindly, about newspapers, magazines and publishing, I always think: although the newspaper or books may become mainstream digital, paper books is a commodity, so goods may produce economic benefits. Of course, "do you read the article, will immediately find T-shirt" is slightly a little unrealistic slogan, but I believe that in special circumstances, we will want to belong to our own something; Every book strive to become souvenirs, there's nothing wrong with that.

For example, for those who have a sales speculative explanation: such as excellent performance the Kindle electronic reader called "recreational reading". That is, if you think couldn't restrain work and want to see "war and peace" desire, and 2012 you can carry on the job work of the book being ultra-thin electronic reader. Electronic reader pop, lead to novel areas of paper books sales plunged.




Obviously, these problem shows that paper books and digital has more tight close relations of cooperation. For example, people already no longer print their family snapshot, because now digital camera is very common; But now convenient ebook publishing means that, if you are willing, you can design and order a more delicate series, before you can't. Also, digital encourage small magazines development, develop new creativity, traditional publishers can on-demand publishing. As the method of Boolean plan (Faber Finds) aims to let has been forgotten in the popular literature classic returned to the eyes of readers. . The screen display effect is exquisite, suitable for reading and browsing the web. But because of different technology, the Kindle Fire screen is not so good as the Kindle reader with electronic ink technology on eye protection. You need to take a rest when continuously reading on it. f you have some wonderful ebooks in Text, with PDF to ePub converter, you can create ePub files with ePub Creator software. There are countless of ePub Maker products in the market. Do you know which one is the best ePub Converter?
In addition, ebook still can alleviate the pressure of transportation. It has to go global appeal power, it solid (you can't burn the ebook), it confirmed--all of the book still will exist with paper version, and in a more reasonable price to buy. All these make us more and more difficult to understand, why not give these unique things a more generous hug?

Who will do the Next Product of the Amazon or Apple?


In the past year, along with new tablet computer, advanced electronic reader and enhanced version of digital content have come out, ebook market won the vigorous development. Readers began to embrace from the short length ebook to digital textbooks, a variety of the format of the digital library. And support the interaction, the visualization and based on text mode of learning digital textbooks for education is opened up a whole new world.
Since the smartphone and tablet computer rise, the traditional publishing industry was impacted unprecedently, many magazines started to try to be paper publications electronic. So do a lot of benefits, such as form rich, easy to carry, and so on. But slowly you found that most of the so-called "electronic" also is the only printing original paper content fill into an applications, add some virtual flip effect and audio video content.
The Worse, if I want to subscribe to A magazine and B magazine, magazine C, then I'll download three separate applications. And so, whenever there is a new issue of the magazine published, applications are need to download a new content, if the content is more, then download time is long.

Is there a better way to subscribe, browse, and update the process is more concise, cheerful, efficient?

A Pandodaily titled "magazine future should be like Spotify as" article gives a possible solutions: build a magazine platform; better way to set up a platform of the article. Let's just get this platform application named Mag Reader.
1. open Mag Reader, you can see what you subscribe to the magazine's latest articles, and based on your interest in the article.

2. Readers have a similar Spotify or Facebook profile page, here are your recent reading the article, the most recommended articles and personal interests, you can also give your favorite magazine and the author. Based on the personal files, Mag Reader will recommend you might be interested in the article.
3. The author also can have individual archives page. Readers can focus on your favorite author, and in the new works of authors have received notice.
4. Publishers also have their own brand of pages. Mag Reader can also like Spotify to support the third party developers.
How to make money the pattern? This paper points out that the author Hamish McKenzie:

Like Apple product,such as iPod, many people cannot move files from iPod to computer, here try iStonsoft iPod to computer app.

The pattern is at least looks good from the book. Some may points out that the magazine publishers will not make a check, because the bundling selling model looks more accord with the interests of the publishers, but Hamish think magazine differentiation (fragmentation) can't avoid trend. And in the long term, the pattern is to readers, publishers and authors three parties are beneficial.
But this "iTunes (split) + Spotify (pay vod) + Flipboard (social reader)" mode is just a hypothetical and has no use this mode of related products appears. So now the judge this model is premature, the road walk not to walk makes sense, also can only wait for related products on the market to accept to come into the test.

Demand for video game consoles has leveled off and quite a few people are leery of investing in yet another high-priced iPod or iPhone upgrade from Apple. But there is still a desire for technologies and the idea of being able to pick up a new eBook reader for only two hundred bucks or so has considerable appeal. Customers can carry a library around in their pocket and even better, buying publications which have been digitized using an ebook development process are cheaper than buying the same publications printed on paper. In other words, a recession-weary public has a chance to scratch their gadget itch and save money.

Yes, reading the paper book is a habit. When you became familiar with the electronic reading giving your fast and convenient, you will like it!

More important is the new Kindle Fire tablet computer is totally different. But I found that the current version let a person feel absurd, Kindle Fire imitate book introduced to me some new reading experience appear too closely, Kindle Fire also seems to have no respect for much of the fun read paper books.

Support only black and white and display, difficult to fold and refresh slow speed of problem, obviously have exceeded everybody’s threshold, so it will produce color dynamic display technology, improve screen refresh rate, and will be in product availability, wireless service ability have further promoted. In the market the demand that gave birth to the electronic reader of natural full-color era. After many years later the upgrade technology and possess strong practical color flexible technology will be fully integrated into the new electronic reader. Digital publishing content providers link that writers, press, newspaper, etc.; Digital formats the producers; Content circulation service platform; the transport platform, also is to a user's channel.

Whether the new iPad can lead to change the world


Apple officially released the third generation iPad tablet computer, apple called it a "New iPad" (New iPad), and apple's past conference, the iPad conference also like a large puzzle, full of suspense, we have been at the conference in summary before apple this news briefing of the three big attraction:
By now, these three big attraction is in conference got specific interpretation, through this conference we basic to see the future direction of the apple, the apple iPad series products for the definition of the future of the development of the market and flat plate, the following is the beauty of specific analysis.
The biggest change is no change, Apple product low performance-to-price ratio is no secret things, in China was even were classed as luxury ranks, but in the conference we see, add the retina screen, 4 G communication module, new processor and expanded 70% battery capacity of the new iPad price had no change, apple have 1000 reasons to ascend iPad price, and apple does not rise to the final price reason is probably only a further down flat products profits, give rivals have no choice.

Introducing the new iPad screen introduced the retina screen, this makes the iPad screen resolution to reach 2048 x1536 pixels, actual display effect extremely jing is colourful, it is enough to make currently on the market all competing goods screen overshadowed by all. Even more terrible, iPad now competing goods manufacturers seem to not introduce the retina screen plan, this means that apple is likely to have a monopoly on the global retinal screen production, so it is likely to be a whole year competition feat not improved.
A5X processor apple iPad built-in A5X new processor, the CPU is more in order to match the retinal screen launched, with four nuclear graphics chips.4 G communication module will also support the new iPad 4 G and 3 G, and having 3 G and 4 G communication module of the new iPad price unchanged 5 million iSight camera new iPad installation and iPhone 4 S with the same technology cameras, but pixels for 5 million, apple will be named the iSight.
The new iPad is a very good product, but is also a disappointing products, we see apple are losing the magic, and on a 3.5-inch iPhone is very difficult to realize the new function on different, 9.7-inch iPad still exist great progress in space. And apple has clothed and didn't realize what new iPad revolutionary change, so the new iPad perhaps is a good product design, but can not change the world again the magic of the products; the iPad is hard to become replacement for traditional PC.Although it has no revolutionary improvement, the new iPad on the traditional PC products can still has great impact, the apple iPad is currently over the enterprise market and education field, especially introduced after 4 G network, the iPad is likely to promote the 4 G network from commercial field to the popularity of civil areas, this may be the new iPad in the biggest breakthrough.
In general, the new iPad improved a lot, but mainly in order to improve the user experience is given priority to, we could not see the iPad subversive design, this may represent the Tim cook time apple the overall direction innovation ability to drop, but more pragmatic, compared with the previous often subversion of the pattern of the industry apple, the new apple more competitive, more make opponents feared, but to consumers that may not be a good thing.

The new iPad will Lead the Reading Direction?


Amazon introduced in 2007 for electronic reading Kindle design, its prospect is also had a confused. Although it is in at that time is the world's first support wireless the ebook reader download books, by electronic ink screen screen, show the effect is very close to the paper, but in the early days but was described as a "Internet bad experience". Kindle is denounce happy event, on the one hand, to win in the amazon take hunger marketing gimmick, another major reason is more wins in has the rich content service and mass, exclusive of the ebook resources, Kindle platform and iTunes, create a seamless ecological system. By the end of last year, with $199 for amazon released the Kindle fire tablet computer, in a month made close to 5 million of the department of sales. Even with color iPad competition, the Kindle is still "create a perfect, integration, fluent in the whole process of the user experience" as the goal, refused to in long-term reading experience on concessions.

The main ebook format PDF, a UMD, EXE, CHM, PDG, JAR, PDB, TXT, BRM etc, at present many popular mobile equipment is the reading of the format support. Mobile terminal common ebook format for UMD, JAR, TXT these three. E-books is a portable portable electronics, designed for reading books design, so we need a iStonsoft PDF to ePub converter tool to resolve the format incompatible format problem, it has a big screen LCD monitor, built-in Internet chip, from the Internet can buy and download the convenient digital books, and there is the large capacity of memory store reams of digital information, a can store about 30 this traditional books information, special design liquid crystal display (LCD) technology can make people comfortable long time reading books. E-books, easy to use, portable capacity is very fit for the characteristics of modern life, digital copyright trade and the Internet technology development, make the ebook users can at lower price convenient to buy more books, for the popular ebook to lay the foundation.
EBooks are the digital edition of paper books which has good deal far more merits which tends to make looking at straightforward and intriguing. Recent know-how of book reader even will help us to browse eBooks in our cellphones so you require not carry paper textbooks all your way. The syncing among this app as well as other Kindle app platforms is totally outstanding, and you can commence perusing your ebook from where ever you left off, despite exactly where that you are. Epub and PDF files by using a product called Adobe Digital Edition, which manages and “approves” DRM products on your low-cost ebook reader. All the cheap ebook readers on our list except the Kindle are compatible with at least some DRM-protected formats.

 

Of course, the iPad isn’t an eReader it is a tablet, so it won’t have the benefits of an ebook reader (like reduced eye strain and long battery life),the iPad is in color and has a lot more functionality as a tablet (since it is really like a small computer).  Amazon Kindle The Amazon bookstore has become the largest and most extensive which you will discover, Sharing is out and everyone has to buy their own copy of an book. Mostcheap ebook readers include assistance for DRM-protected.

but some people say that it is easier to read off of the iPad than off of a laptop. As far as comparing the iPad to the Kindle DX, The consensus seems being that there is no perfect PDF ebook reader currently on the market, there is still room for improvement. But that functionality comes at a much higher price tag. All facts is saved in digital kind, why not guides? This believed has resulted while in the creation of e books. But if you don’t want to sit in front of the pc or laptop computer to study guides and when you should study eBooks comfortably in destinations wherever you go, One thing the Kindle can’t read is a non-AZW, DRM (digital rights management)-protected file. it will work on your ebook reader and PC but not on anyone else’s.

Electronic books market prospects beyond question, but the most began to take the traditional book to develop electronic books market is being too hasty. Ebook electricity business platform can try and magazine cooperation, developing the electronic magazine. Generally buy the magazine has a good habit of paying for people, and the current technology can also make the electronic magazine realization and entity experience of reading the same book magazine. The business can and magazine ebook business cooperation with the exclusive way to avoid price war. Generally speaking the efficiency of the magazine is stronger, readers will buy the latest issue of the magazine reading, and its content validity is shorter, spread value and collection value is relatively small, the normally is the magazine faults are now into electronic magazine development advantage. Not only that, the electronic magazine have many advantages, such as portable browsing at any time, at any time to buy, magazines circulated rate lower, because these magazines are always through the mobile terminal reader. And the electronic magazine tell the printing, logistics and other costs, can lower the price to attract more potential readers. The advantages of the electronic magazine still have a lot of, as long as the electronic magazine technology can finish, electronic magazine will have a good market potential.
