There are plenty of reasons to approve of Apple, and ♥ their devices (even if I personally dislike both). ebooks/iBooks are not one of them.

Pointing out the way Apple is completely lacking in every way in that area (for the serious reader) is not necessarily Apple-bashing... It could be I/we are merely telling the truth.

Apple does not sell ebooks, they sell iDevices with incentives. They have no interest in paying attention to their ebookstore beyond what is necessary to stick in an ad. Basically, that they have one. And that it is flashy.

Real readers with real needs need more than that, and only the start of it is the need to read on e-ink devices.
