Hi sledger,
Sorry if I'm confused
I'll admit that you can think of an enhanced ebook as a form of tablet app.
But looking at what the iBook Author system does, that's pretty much what I would be looking for in any enhanced ebook development system.
The downside is that it only runs on an iPad (which I do not own).
Pauland mentioned the same thing - Apple is really clever at getting people like me, who actively avoid their products, to even contemplate going to the Dark Side.
I have to say the authoring envionment seems to be incredibly compelling.
But just think - if XWD could do something similar for cross-platform it would be a real killer application.
Cheers,
SPuD
