Sony has finally set a launch date (December) and released preview images of its forthcoming e-reading apps for iPhone and Android devices (below).
When Sony announced its latest line of touchscreen e-readers earlier this year, it promised that complementary mobile apps would become available by the end of the year. Soon, owners of Sony e-readers will be able to access their digital library on their smartphones as well as their desktops and e-readers.
Competitors Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Kobo have had apps out on both platforms, as well as the iPad and BlackBerry, for some time now; Amazon also has an app available for Windows Phone 7 devices, and Kobo has one for the Palm Pre.
