This seems like a good place for this question. An independent publisher recently sent me an email saying they were now releasing ebooks, and said that Kindle and "other formats" would be released. They recommended the "iBooks" version because it had "more formatting options" that made the reading experience closer to a pbook. This is the first I've heard of this - I know that the iBooks app has special fancy features (e.g. animated page turns), but I assumed that support for basic nuts-and-bolts stuff like verse, tables, lists, and all the other bog standard html was just as piss-poor on the Apple platform as everywhere else. Is this mistaken? Does Apple have their act together more than say ADE or KF-8?
