Pretty historic 2 weeks for me

A year ago, if you asked me what I was doing, I would have said, “No biggie, just designing an eReader application for the iPhone.” Since then, I’ve worked on the mobile architecture for the iPhone, BlackBerry, Pre and Android. The past two weeks saw Kobo announcing their new eReader device for our retail partners, an iPad app (that was approved 3 hours ago) and a partner program.

I’m really proud with the UX design of both the eReader and iPad. I hope that people who use the device, hold it, interact with it–get an idea of the quality of people who worked on this to make it happen. I can’t wait to see how Kobo compares to iBooks on the iPad. We haven’t had nearly as much time as Apple to make iBooks, but I they’ll be surprised by how fast we can iterate.

I can’t wait to see the iPhone version of iBooks. I’m sure it will be great.
