What's new in eBookbase V3

eBookbase Server version 3 is released in conjunction with Mobi Reader Desktop 5.0 (October 2005).

New functionalities include:

Use of Web services for communication between the retail site and eBookbase

Should I use V3 or V2 ?

The eBookbase version 2 service is maintained and runs independently from eBookbase V3. New retailers should implement eBookbase V3. Existing V2 Retailers can continue to use V2, or upgrade to V3 in order to benefit from the new functionalities.
