I'll be honest, I'm seeing things happen so fast these days that it scares the crap out of me because I don't have the time anymore to keep up (one of the reasons why The Digital Front died out - I couldn't keep up with the developments; ironic, since now it's when that show would be super relevant). As a consumer, I am excited as heck. As a producer, it shows that my time is limited and coming to an end, as I'm moving into a different lifepath that will require more and more of my time and not leave enough to stay current and relevant. Which is fine; I'd rather see the change coming than be caught unaware (hurricanes over earthquakes). This is an interesting time, with all that entails. Thanks for the overview.

Formats like the EPUB used by the iPad and other readers (which is really just zip-packaged XHTML) are going to have to become more common in game releases. Absolutely.

It's a format for maintaining presentation for paper, and if tablets become common place many people will want a format designed for digital presentation. Take HTML for example. Us web designers have had to suffer with designing sites despite the fact every computer displays them differently, due to resolution, colour depth, operating system and browser. Yet we've managed. I think it's time publishers adopted a more malleable format to suit the digital age, perhaps offering PDF's for customers wanting to print, as a seperate product? Regardless of the movement in industry, I plan to buy books for as long as publishers produce them. My books never run out of battery ;) I would add, that publishers need to seriously re-evaluate the value of PDF.
