Apple iBooks on the iPad CONFIRMED

Apple confirms Apple iBooks, though that name is weird because they had a product line of notebooks call iBooks. This is interesting though as the rumors stated they did.

"They want to stand on shoulder of Amazon.com" and go a bit further.

iPhone App Developers Contributing to Haiti Relief

We've been watching the devastation unfold right in front of our eyes on T.V. and everyone has been trying to do something to help, well now you can just by purchasing apps and what a GREAT excuse to buy some apps, lol! There are several companies out there doing something for the Haiti Relief that you can support to get your donation to the charity of your choice. For starters - there is the big one that involves multiple developers and it's called the Indie Relief.



A group of over 140 Mac and iPhone developers will donate 100 percent of their software sales from the day to a charity of their choice through Indie+Relief. The charities are all helping with the relief efforts in Haiti and include such organizations as Doctors Without Borders, the Red Cross, and UNICEF. Applications range in price, but they start at $0.99 so there really is something that practically everyone can afford.

I also found these companies had particular Haiti Relief deals ...
