The Australian iBookstore is finally open, five months after the iPad’s release in that country. The store will be offering books by Macmillan, Hachette, HarperCollins, Hardie Grant, Murdoch Publishers and Wylie. HarperCollins has said that its full ebook catalog of local and international titles will be available in the store.
Hachette Australia will be making its ebooks available to the store under the agency model and ebooks and print books will be available simultaneously.
Of course, as reported below, Smashwords will be in the store as well.
