The eBook reader market is certainly getting some attention lately with Amazon's new Kindle reader and Barnes & Noble releasing their reader. What I thought was very interesting is Amazon is releasing the Kindle For PC beta application for Windows in November.
To me this makes sense. Why limit your potential sales to a dedicated hardware device such as the Kindle reader, when you can make books available the larger market. I've put my name down to be notified when the beta application is available and will be checking it out. If you're interested in the Kindle For PC beta you can register using this link.
Many books such as those written by Australian authors (as listed on the Book Project page), will mostly likely never be available via Amazon. The good thing for consumers is there is more choice. You can access Amazon's range, you can read PDFs directly on your computer, or you can purchase printed books. The choice is yours.
