All Things D: Apple iBooks 2 sells 350,000 textbooks in three days

What:

    Puff Piece on iBooks Sales

Thoughts:
   Seems like yet another misleading puff piece, based upon little to know actual evidence. I couldn't find the source or any hard numbers to support any of the assertions in the piece. I think these numbers probably refelct 349,999 downloads of the free book E.O. Wilson’s Life on Earth, and 1 actual purchase of the textbook.

 In any case this whole thing won't be considered a success until its established itself in the long term, a test drive isn't the same as a purchase.
