A few days ago, it was reported that Apple was sending specifications of its tablet to various news sources in an attempt to find out which sources would be interested in delivering their content to customers through the tablet. One newspaper that Apple has approached was the New York Times.
It has also been suggested that Apple may include digital comic books on the tablet. Executives at the comic giants such as Marvel and DC Comics say that they haven’t heard anything from Apple, though, which is not a good sign.
It is also rumored that textbook publisher McGraw Hill will be moving its textbooks to the tablet’s digital format, which helps contribute to the rumor of Apple selling a version of the tablet specifically for educational use.
Along with these publications, rumors have risen about Apple working with magazine and book publishers to bring their content to the upcoming tablet.
Amazon’s Kindle, which would be Apple’s main competitor in the digital publication market, has nearly half a million book, and a variety of newspapers/magazines.
