Fwd: UG News: 45% off Ebook Purchases from O'Reilly

[Craig White]

I was going to mention but did not...

In the Android marketplace, there was a deluge of O'Reilly books
released that felt like a spam wave. Curiously all of the books seemed
to be Microsoft Press titles so I gathered that Microsoft Press paid
O'Reilly to convert and release them but I rather seriously doubt that
the android marketplace is going to big outlet for Microsoft Press
titles (nor the iTunes store). I am gathering that this is a new project
by O'Reilly and they have come up with technology to convert and release
on a myriad of platforms.

I think the idea is good though and hope to see all sorts of Linux
publications from O'Reilly available in the Android Marketplace but
didn't see them.
