What did you think of iBooks? Have you tried buying and reading books on the iPad?

I love the way that iBooks looks. Check it out:

Not only does it look like a real bookshelf but it takes an otherwise lifeless grid and turns it into something cool and recognizable in context with the user interface. Here is a video walkthrough of the iBookstore: youtube.com/watch?v=zK5hp0HFFQY My only problem with the iBookstore is the ePub format.

I've heard a number of people say that they are not buying books from the iBookstore. Instead, they are buying them in DRM free versions that aren't tied to the iPad. A lot of people (including myself) are sick of buying media over-and-over again when devices or formats change.

I've bought some music more than 5 times already. Books? I've spend hundreds of dollars on books only to shelf them and purchase the eBook later.So, while the iBookstore is cool and iBooks are awesome... I'm going to hold back from buying them.

I'll buy a DRM free PDF (or similar), convert it to an ePub and import it into iBooks.

Nice, I like reading ebooks on ipad, I have so many choice and I can enjoy ait anytime.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
