Nice application use of new API’s but will this allow users to turn OFF BBM updates since its the NOW real-time way to communicate? Can’t enjoy or focus on reading a book on your mobile if the BBM is blowing up your BlackBerry every few seconds. More annoyingly if people are spoiling each chapter.

This is a great demo of the new BBM features. Unfortunately it looks like it will require an update to BBM, and will not be out for awhile yet. This is bad for Kobo as it will probably be enough time to allow Kindle to catch up…

Kobo has one of the worse of the ebook apps on the iPad. It is junky. And, the pricing is sometimes unreliable. Most irritating is that the store is awkward to search. If one looks for a title or author, scores, hundreds or thousands of entries that share a single word or even a close word come up. The Kobo store will literally chase you off to the Kindle Store or iBooks.
