iLiad Book Edition

iRex公布了一个新版本的iLiad,除了颜色改成了靓丽的银色并去掉了WiFi外,规格上同iLiad 2nd基本一致。最主要的变化大概是这个版本整合了电子书内容服务,此次iRex选择了英国的BORDERS作为电子书提供商,随机附送了50本经典和畅销书,应该还是带DRM的Mobipocket格式。

其实之前两个版本的iLiad(仅限欧版)都能支持Mobipocket格式,考虑到Mobipocket和BORDERS都是Amazon旗下公司,新的Book Edition提供更多的Mobipocket书籍并不奇怪,只是不知道它和Amazon自家的Kindle是否犯冲了。比较特别的是,这个版本只针对欧美市场,因此不再提供对中文的支持。
