Default O'Reilly To Release Dead Tree iPhone App Store Guide

http://www.macsimumnews.com/index.p...st_iphone_apps/

"Fortunately, Best iPhone Apps: The Guide for Discriminating Downloaders guides the way, shining the light on over 200 gee-whiz apps that delight, empower, and entertain. Author Josh Clark stress-tested thousands of titles from the App Store emporium to select apps that will make the biggest difference in every aspect of your life: at work, on the town, at play, at home, and on the road. “I wrote this book to help you stay current,” notes Clark."

Okay...  I'll say it.

I don't get it.

A book about the App Store?  A resource where hundreds upon hundreds of new applications are available to people every day?  While I get the general idea, and can appreciate the work involved in reviewing all those apps to choose them for a book, I don't understand why anyone would want a dead tree reference for the App Store.  It'll be out of date by the time you get it home!

I don't get it.
