"Australians can now use ther iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch as a serious e-book reader after Apple opened the doors to its iBookstore today."
Lucky iPad readers now can do their eyes in through reading overpriced ebooks!

Thanks for the link. This is great news. Australian readers have been complaining about not being able to get my books—and many other authors' work. This should help.

So they do a deal with Apple who don't sell many books and only a small percentage of people have access to - rather than with general booksellers who will sell a lot more first?

At least they are consistent in their not wanting to sell books behaviour.
