Google may sell digital books called Google Edition from June or July. Google was in news for trying to develop a e-reader which will compete with iPad, Nook devices and Kindle. Google Edition will not be restricted to a platform; the book could be installed on many different devices.

Google Edition will be sold by online retailers and majority of the revenue generated by the sale of Google Edition’s sale will be taken by the sellers. Publishers will define the price of their books. Google is expecting to sell at least 500,000 books.
