Barnes & Noble has added a range of new features in its Nook 1.3 software, now beaming its way to wifi-connected e-readers.
Read In Store, currently in beta, allows customers in the company’s bookstores to read many complete eBooks, even if the physical book is not in stock – although they’ll need to be fast readers, as access is limited to an hour a day.
Soon, it promises in-store visitors will also be able to virtually flip through leading daily newspapers and magazines covering news, finance and technology.
