I think that was just code for "we don't want to talk about it, as we don't want to encourage possible competitors"

He said much the same thing about video on iPods.

But I don't expect to see a dedicated ebook reader from Apple anytime soon. Although it's just possible that Apple might produce ebook reader software for the iPod Touch/iPhone and open up an ebook section of the iTunes stores.

Meanwhile, I'll happily use my CyBook, and wait for a more robust replacement ot come along in due course from Bookeen or someone else.
