When I saw the new Googlebooks in the flesh for the first time last month, I was shocked. Not by the software, which aligned closely with what I was expecting for ‘Android on a laptop’. Nor the hardware, even if a £999/$899 starting price was difficult to stomach. Instead, it was the big name missing […]
