The iPad is an amazing device. I love reading on it and developing content based apps for it. To do that more efficiently I'm developing a platform to create interactive media readers I’m calling the platform "Pikes Peak Viewer". (Yes, I can use some branding help but I'm taking it one step at a time.)

Along with the iPad last week Apple announced iBooks with support for the ePub format and iBookstore. We don’t know the details of what will be available, what we will be able to do, or how we will interact with it but I was curious about the iPub format and am sure it will see increased activity and interest in the future.
