Mention of iBooks 3.0 discovered in recent iTunes listing, supporting books focus for iPad mini event

Just last week we brought you the news that Apple’s October 23rd iPad mini event would be focused on iBooks, which makes sense as it will likely be a great device for reading. I posited at the time that this might include new versions of Apple’s book-related software like iBooks. Now, a live listing on iTunes, discovered by Florian Innocente at iGen.fr, is directly referencing iBooks 3.0 as a requirement. You can see the listing, which is still live, here. I’ve reproduced it in a screenshot below in case it gets altered.

Wonderful Article!
