∞ iPad book promo list leaked

Written by

One of the great new features of the iPad is iBooks, Apple’s online book store that is expected to launch in iTunes when the device is released.

TUAW has a list of books that they’ve verified came from Apple. There is no guarantee the books will come to the iPad, but they could be among the first. The story claims there are 112 titles on the list from a variety of publishers, including Hachette, HarperCollins, Holt, Macmillan, Penguin, Random House, Simon & Schuster and Weinstein Books.

Prices for the books are reportedly as high as $14.99 all the way down to free.

I spent some time using the iPad at the launch event and can say that one of my favorite features was iBooks. I really didn’t expect it to be as good as it was, but I suspect it may change the way I read books.

Update: 12:25 pm PT Reworded the second paragraph to better reflect that TUAW verified the list came from Apple, but they don’t know if they will be on the iPad.

    It won't change the way I read book: from left to right, starting at the top of the page and working my way down. :-)

      I guess I probably deserved that. :D

        Most of us are just amazed that you can read at all.

          It's the beard reading to him.

    of course all things Twilight will consume the top of the best sellers list. with perhaps the last harry potter right under it. the 17 Obama bios will finish things off.

      It'll be interesting to see how many they kick off with.

    this interface looks exactly like Delicious library…any connection?

      no. there's no connection between the two. however there's not really anything that inventive about DL using a bookshelf and books. even a wood book shelf. So not a shock they look the same. even the guys that made DL have said the same thing.
