Here are some more details about the iPad Wall:
• All the iPads would have specifically written software and be interconnected to each other wirelessly. Apple's software policy for such a project would determine the final method of delivery.
• You could see all the latest book releases on the wall! You could also do a book search, email, browse the net or leave a book review on the wall.
• If you just tap on a book cover, you could read the summary. You could also download the book to your own device (or show you how to find a physical copy within the library if it was that kind of library).
• You could borrow a book electronically. It could be free and the book you download from the library wall just expires at a certain time. (e.g. a time protected PDF) It would be different from buying an e-book.
• If you can't reach the book on the top tile, you could digitally drag the closet tile to you and the books would move along and come closer to you. (This works because all tiles are interconnected wirelessly)
