An error message displayed in the latest beta of iOS 6 for Apple TV suggests that support for iBooks may be coming to Apple's set-top box. But what about the Mac?
After downloading an e-book from Apple's iBookstore, an Apple TV tied to the same iTunes account will present users with a notification, according to "AppleInsider" (www.appleinsider.com) The prompt tells the user that the Apple TV attempted to automatically download the iBooks content, but it couldn't be accessed because the device doesn't have the necessary software installed.
That's all well and good, but I'd still like to see iBooks, the iBookstore and iTunes U available on Mac OS X, as well as Newsstand. I want to be able to buy books, textbooks and magazines and have them -- via iCloud -- synced across all my iOS and OS X devices so I can read them whenever and wherever I choose. It makes much more sense to have ebooks and e-mags come to the Mac before the Apple TV.
