Happy Canada Day ... The Canadian Bookstore Arrives

Previously I lamented about the lack of selection in the iBook store. It was just the free titles at that time. Today the Canadian content came online and there is a lot more to choose from. I still find the selection to be thin.

One thing I didn't notice before was alerts. You can set an alert on an author so you notified when a new book by that author becomes available. It would be nice if you could set an alert on a search phrase.

A feature I like about the amazon store is the wish list. Sometimes I am interested in something but don't want to buy it quite yet. Amazon let's me make a note about that by adding it to the wish list.
