With galleries, video, interactive diagrams, 3D objects, and more, these books bring content to life in ways the printed page never could.

    Now anyone can create stunning iBooks textbooks, cookbooks, history books, picture books, and more for iPad. All you need is an idea and a Mac. Start with one of the Apple-designed templates that feature a wide variety of page layouts. Add your own text and images with drag-and-drop ease. Use Multi-Touch widgets to include interactive photo galleries, movies, Keynote presentations, 3D objects, and more. Preview your book on your iPad at any time.

    Apple has also announced and released iBooks 2 update . The next evolution of eBooks for the iPad push the limits even further. The app will support textbooks developed by iBooks Author multitouch gestures to move throughout an iBook which can be full of “rich, engaging interactive experiences” — even featuring 3D models so a student can see, for example, inside a cell. In the demo iBook, switching the iPad to portrait re-orientated the content so that the student could focus on reading the text. That way, books can have two completely different experiences, simply by re-orientating the iPad.

    At this year CES, companies like Liquipel and HzO have introduced a revolutionary waterproof coating to your electronic device to protect them in the event of accidental exposure to liquids. It is not visible to the human eye, virtually undetectable and will not compromise the look, feel, and performance of your electronics.

    Liquipel solved the issue with a coating material that repels water and it’s barely visible to the naked eye. You can’t buy this thing but instead, you need to send your device to Liquipel to apply the coating for you at a $59 value.

    Liquipel supports the Apple iPhone 3G/3GS/4/4S, HTC EVO 4G, EVO Shift 4G, MyTouch 4G, Thunderbolt, Motorola Droid X/X2 and the Samsung Charge.

    On the other side, HzO employs a proprietary chemical dubbed, WaterBlock that protects your device from the inside on the molecular level. Watch the clips below:
