According to a iTunes leak, Apple is set to announce iBooks 3.0 at its Media Event tomorrow. This special media event is also expected to be the unveiling of the new iPad mini as well as a refresh of the Mac mini and iMac desktops.
With the launch of a smaller iPad, it really isn�t surprising to find that Apple are going to tweak and improve their iBooks service especially when they are planning to drive home the education message in a bid to get more sales for the iPad mini too. The iPad has already played a big role in offering a more interactive education in many schools and learning facilities and with a smaller, cheaper version set to be launched more schools and children will be able to take advantage of this technology.
iBooks 2.0 was announced earlier this year and it came with digital textbook support. A current listing on Apple�s iTunes Store mentions iBooks 3.0 and with the media event scheduled for tomorrow we are sure that Tim Cook and his friends at Apple will be able to offer us further insight to this new version during the keynote speech.
Whilst the iPad is not considered to be a device for readings, the smaller iPad mini with a lower price tag might just be something that consumers will be willing to pick up and read on. The display of the new iPad mini is expected to have the same resolution as the iPad 2 which means it will a sharp look for the new iBooks will be used.
We have absolutely no idea as to what improvements have been made to iBooks 3.0 but we are speculating that it has been significantly altered from its current state. All will become clearer tomorrow and we will also have all the updated information with regards to the iPad mini, new iBooks and any other product that is mentioned.
