Announcing Enhanced Editions

Enhanced Editions is a new startup, co-founded by me (Peter Collingridge, MD of Apt Studio), working with publishers to realise the single-minded mission of bringing eBooks to the iPhone in the way nature intended.

Whilst it’s still in somewhat “stealthy” mode, Apt has just launched the website for Enhanced Editions, and there is a mailing list over at the site to which you can subscribe for updates. There is also a Twitter account, @enhancededition with a pesky character limit – of which we have not yet heard the last.

Enhanced Editions has been in planning and development for about a year, inspired in part by a blog post I wrote about Stanza last summer. It’s been an amazing process, and I can’t wait to share the results with you – which will happen later this summer.

We will be looking for beta testers in the coming weeks, but in the meantime, sign up at www.enhanced-editions.com if you want to stay updated.

    Hey Peter

    As an iPhone freak I really thought the whole ebook revolution was great, I have been using Books on Board and eReader accounts for a while, until earlier this year and then all the geographic restrictions hit.

    Obviously this has been a real issue for us in the UK.

    It is now at a level where we cant even buy ebooks through our iPhone’s….

    Will your venture help this situation or is it just geared to the US market?

    Good to see some enthusiasm in a project.
