EBOOK HISTORY
In 1990 SONY brought the first eBook reader to the market, the Data Discman. The “Electronic Books” were small 8cm mini CDs that were used in a cartridge (caddy). To produce EBG-standard books it was necessary to use the authoring software from SONY which imports the data as plain text and then converts it to the SGML format that looks a little like HTML. To learn more about the origins of the eBooks MEGA has studied the EBG format and converted the brochure EMERGENT<IMG> into a historic eBook.
