Adobe has released a new e-book software program: Adobe Digital Editions 1.0.

Adobe Digital Editions is available as a free download for Microsoft Windows and Apple systems. And according to the Adobe press release, it already has some industry support.

Quote: From Morgan News:

Digital Editions also offers its own support for PDF and XML-based publications. That means it’s already compatible with quite a few existing publications. It also supports Flash, which would allow authors to imbed audio and video. Finally, you would be able to set up bookmarks, do highlighting and make text notes in the publication.

The other interesting component of this is that Adobe’s InDesign CS3 is expected to include an export feature to create the ebooks. Bang zoom. The ebook race is off again.
