Now this is an interesting bit of news from MacStories who received information from Market Research firm Book Marketing Ltd, via Gigaom, stating that the eBook of choice in the US is the Kindle and yet in the UK it is either the iPhone or iPad. It has not been made clear in the article whether the iOS user may actually be using the Kindle app on their device, this much was not clear, but there’s no question that in the US the Kindle is king.
It’s great news for us of course, as we submitted our blog to the Kindle blog store only a few days ago, check it out here, and you can get a 14 day free trial, thereafter it’s only $1.99, well worth the money.
