Walt Mossberg – For iPad and Mobile Devices, a “Port” out of the Norm
Although some people see a reason to buy a device just to read a book, I don’t. Some have said that Amazon’s Kindle is the savior of the e-book market. I don’t believe it. Others say that e-book readers will kill the book-publishing industry and bring it into the 21st century. I think that’s rubbish. The fact of the matter is e-book readers will never have commercial relevance.
This is a section of the AllThingsD Web site featuring posts that have been curated from around the Web: pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Five posts are included here each weekday, but only the headline and the first two sentences. We link to the original site for the rest. The section is explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that content comes “from other Web sites.”
We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions. Voices is edited by Beth Callaghan.
