Google has opened up its e-bookstore to the Android Market. Android
users will now be able to buy e-books from Google's Android Market, a
logical tie in to Google's own eBookstore that was launched in December
last year. Android users can choose between viewing the book on the Web
or downloading a copy to their Android device for reading on the Google
Books app.
Google's
book sales arrives at the Android Market close on the heels of an
update announced by book and e-book retailer Barnes & Noble to its
free NOOK for Android app. The update adds requested features, including
a new library grid view, wish list feature and download progress meter,
amongst other improvements. Barnes & Noble has also promised a new
release of Nook for Android this spring that would feature enhanced
graphics, grid views and other improvements that would be optimized for
shopping and reading on larger 10-inch Honeycomb-based tablets, which
would span to-be-launched products from Motorola, Samsung, and Toshiba.
