dBelement – Amazing web app for iPhone (android?)
This is it … the now of applications? This Stanza/Kindle like reader for your mobile device does offline storage of books but it’s only a webapp, it’s not a binary, device specific application. Leaps and bounds, this is the future for general content applications. I have long thought it strange that publications release device specific applications for the iPhone which are not much more than browsers for the content already available on their websites. Of course with the near ubiquity now of mobile webkit based browsers we can hope that the path for development is clear, stable, and robust enough to create a real ecosystem of offline capable apps for mobile devices.
