The title should probably mention that it only effects email. Comment #48 explains the reasoning behind it, and frankly seems perfectly reasonable.

Can someone confirm for me if Apple require developers to use this API for in-app purchases? If that is the case, I really hope that they step up and do something about it soon.

They've done this for over a year now.

Reddit tried this (you can buy a reddit gold account with extra features). It hasn't worked.

Be available outside the US.

Hardware is still cheaper than the extra hours developers will have to put in writing the "C scripts" (...) in the first place.

I'm not a huge fan of flash and while the percentage seems rather huge, at least the problems are actually getting patched.

"Add in the fact that on the new MacBook Air, merely stripping Flash from the default OS X install adds two hours to the battery life"

I'd like to see this test replicated with some other technology filing in the gaps that Flash leaves when you remove it, otherwise this means nothing. Of course doing less will used less power. I suspect playing a video while browsing the web would have a similar (how ever probably slightly less significant) effect.

Old men don't like it when things change, and assert their opinion as fact, trust me.

I have a Kindle 3, and while its not as large as the DX, I'd say it was still a good alternative to the real thing, but it depends a lot on how you want to read the book.

If you read the book from cover to cover then it'll be great. If you want to look up specifics in the book, then it'll be great for that too thanks to the search.

On the other hand, if you want to flick through the book reading the parts that interest you then paper is still much easier to use.

As for an iPad, I can't see how it would possible be any better than a dedicated ebook reader for reading programming books. I'd stick with my Kindle.

I certainly hope so, I just hope that they manage to pull it off.

I expect the next couple of releases to be garbage though, I just can't see them having enough time to make it fast and stable enough to be work using. If I'm wrong I'll be delighted.
