It seems like a lot of people are reporting various problems with their iPad or itunes that I never encounter. Is everyone making sure they have the latest iTunes and iOS and ibooks?
iOS 3.2 did fix some pdf glitches and security issues.

Please tell us which Amazon ePub / PDF title DRM'd with Adobe Adept - read by, for example, Adobe Digital Editions and its derivatives (such as Bluefire on iPad) - you have purchased from Amazon and which is readable by iBooks. I am personally not aware of Amazon selling anything but Amazon's version of Mobipocket with DRM which is not readable by iBooks which is based on an ePub DRM not a Mobipocket format with DRM.
Please also tell us of an Adobe Adept DRM'd title purchased elsewhere that you are able to read via iBooks, a title that can be purchased from ebooks.com or other seller for example.
There is no place where Apple has claimed that iBooks is capable of reading Adept DRM'd ePub or PDFs or Mobipocket - with or without DRM.
Perhaps you are reporting experiences with ePubs for which Adept has been circumvented - possible but non-trivial; or perhaps you have been reading Amazon books using the Kindle app on your iPad. To quote from Apple:
Quote:
Kindle and virtually all other eBook reader applications designed for iPhone or iPod touch should work with iPad.
However, books downloaded from the Kindle Store and other books that are not in the standard(Apple's) ePub format are not compatible with iBooks.
