Apple's upcoming textbook event to focus on ebook distribution, not tools

I hope Apple leads the path to greater textbook-tablet integration for students. I don't care AT ALL if it doesn't save me money in the long run, because it will save my back from the darn, stupid-heavy books I have! I also hope that they go beyond k-12 soon.

I'm looking forward to iBooks Author. I've always wanted to create something in a book.
