		<description><![CDATA[I’m always been wary of hype. I’m also wary of vague PR-speak which gets hyped by the media and played as fact. For this reason I’ve always been reluctant to subscribe to the commonly held view that Amazon’s Kindle is romping ahead in every market, winning an unassailable lead over its rivals. Let me be [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some people have a tendency to overreact and sadly the internet then hugely amplifies the volume of that overreaction and gives it a credence it doesn’t deserve. Misunderstandings, hysteria and outright disinformation get repeated until they become inaccurate ‘truths’ that in turn get cited in defence of other inaccurate assertions. The past few days have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After yesterday’s announcement, I popped along to the MAc App Store to grab myself a copy of Apple’s new eBook authoring tool, iBooks Author. A free download, the Mac-only package feels very similar to Pages, Apple’s word processor and has the same ‘hand-holding’ feel as its Garageband music/podacast tool. Apple promises the software will allow [...]]]></description>
