I think the best feature of B&N’s hardware ebook reader device the NOOK was the lend to a friend feature. The ability to lend books just like we would a paper and glue version has long been missing from readers like the Kindle. The “LendMe” feature allows you to lend or borrow books on any of the BN eReader platforms including “The Holy Trinity” (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch), Mac, PC or NOOK.
I love to read books, a trait I pick up from my mother, and there was no better way to consume books than with my Kindle 1. However, since the iPad gave me 3 major sources and growing of places to score really good content my Kindle is collecting dust. What has been you experience with eReading? Leave me a comment to insert your $.02.

I just got this app and I have to say so far its cool. I’ll be doing a full video review of the app in a few days after i put it through it’s paces. From what i gather thus far it is very intuitive and easy to just jump right in and start futtin’ around getting creative.
I love all things design and this is no exception as Moodboard Pro has a very nice interface design. It seems as if they have a great understanding of the touch interface and it ergonomics.
Until I get my video of this great app up please take a look at the developers video:
Totally on a more patriotic note, the designer/co-creator of the app Kyle Tress, is a World Cup Skeleton athlete and a 2014 Winter Olympic hopeful. That alone make me want to buy this app as US athletes have to raise their own funds to be an Olympian. Check out his blog http://www.kyletress.com/
I’d say buy it now even if you don’t need it so you can help out this inspiring Olympian… well and because it is a great app. This one will surely end up on my home screen.
A few days back I read on TUAW (The Unofficial Apple Weblog) a story where Vietnamese site Tinhte had leaked the details of this update and needless to say they were pretty dead on.
I’m confused weather he really likes it or not, he seems to keep going back and forth. One thing I think he totally missed s the how to get media into the device. He said he did not want to just iTunes as the only way in and out but did not elude as to why not.
Documents are easily emailed to your self or synced via Pages, Google Docs, Zoho or countless other file mover type iPhone apps. Movies can be converted via VLC, QuickTime and two hundred other iPod Video Converters as they have been since people started stealing movies nearly ten years ago. so I’m not sure why he is bitching.
Anyway we may have to post the how to after we get one in house.
WSJ’s Personal Technology columnist Walt Mossberg reviews Apple’s iPad. More than an e-reader and an oversized iPhone, he says the tablet computer is a “robust, general-purpose device” with the potential to change portable computing as we know it.

Go watch the almost decent response to our complaints.
An Update for our Customers
Some customers have had questions about our plans and policies for iPhone 3G S, and wed like to provide you with answers. Wed also like to announce a change to the date when some iPhone customers are eligible for our best upgrade pricing to iPhone 3G S.
PRICING
Importantly, we want our customers to better understand our wireless device upgrade program. Like most U.S. carriers, we offer a variety of phones that we sell below our actual cost when customers agree to sign service agreements. In general, the more a customer spends with us, the quicker they become eligible for a price break on a new device. For example, iPhone customers who spend more than $99 a month per line with us generally are eligible for an upgrade between 12 and 18 months into their contract.
We also currently offer early upgrade pricingonly for iPhone 3G S and iPhone 3G.
All of that said, weve been listening to our customers. And since many of our iPhone 3G customers are early adopters and literally weeks shy of being upgrade eligible due to iPhone 3G S launching 11 months after iPhone 3G, were extending the window of upgrade eligibility for a limited time.
Were now pleased to offer our iPhone 3G customers who are upgrade eligible in July, August or September 2009 our best upgrade pricing, beginning Thursday, June 18.
If youre one of the many customers who will benefit from this change, please note that our upgrade eligibility tools will reflect this change on Thursday, June 18.
We invite you to come to our stores beginning Friday during normal store hours, although please be aware that customer demand may exceed supply in some of our stores. You may also preorder online on June 18 atwww.att.com/iPhone, and your iPhone 3G S will arrive in 7 14 days. Or you can purchase iPhone 3G S at Apples retail and online stores, as well as at other popular retailers.
If youre one of the customers who benefits from this change, and youve already preordered from an AT&T store, well adjust the price of the device when you pick it up. If you benefit from the change and you pre-ordered from AT&T online, well send you an e-mail and issue you a credit.
If you pre-ordered an iPhone 3G S through Apples online store, your upgrade eligibility will be reassessed based on AT&T’s new upgrade policy for iPhone 3G owners. If you are eligible for the lower price, Apple will issue you a credit for the difference as applicable.
So, what if you still arent eligible for our best upgrade pricing and you still want iPhone 3G S now? You do have options:
You may qualify for the iPhone 3G S early upgrade price of $399 (16GB) or $499 (32GB).
You can pay full retail and not have to sign a 2-year contract at $599 (16GB) or $699 (32GB).
You can wait until youre eligible for our best upgrade pricing. We invite you to check your upgrade eligibility by visitingwww.att.com/iphone, calling *NEW# (*639#) on your AT&T device (well send you a text with upgrade information), or visiting any of our over 2,200 stores.
If you want more details on our pricing and upgrade policy, check out ourFAQs. And as always, you may visit one of our stores to talk with a representative.
In Summary
Weve listened to our customers and hope our response helps answer some of your questions and concerns.
We are incredibly proud to be the U.S. carrier for the new iPhone 3G S and will work around the clock to be ready on June 19 to serve customers who are interested in the fastest, most powerful iPhone yet.
