Yep, Google is open for business.

Apparently they are setting up some kind of affiliate-type program, so independent online bookstores can resell Google's ebooks.

It will be a mix of agency and non-agency priced books.

I'm sure it will work offline, but the basic idea is that the "home" of your purchases is in the cloud (Google's servers).
