I've had to "dumb down" the book I'm working on right now to deal with iBooks shortcomings. It pissed me off to have to make the changes but that's what I did.

Yes. Liz couldn't tweak ours, or, rather, assist us with making it work with the iOS 5 bug, given what's needed, so we've done the same thing--centered images, no floating, yadda. Infuriating, but the solution we'd implemented would likely break on iOS6, and I'm not going to screw around with fixing Apple's web-kit for a book. That's nuts. And I'm pretty damned pissed about it myself.
