I wonder what kind of pricing they would use for these hybrid book-apps?
The actual ebook hardware is advancing so quickly that the default readers may add this kind of functionality themselves.
For example readers will probably be able to grab locations from books and provide more information on those as you read, all kinds of multimedia stuff can be inserted into the books automatically. The internet already offers half of the functionality they listed though.. I mean why the need for an integrated dictionary app in the ebook when it could be replaced with a simple web browser in the reader.
