Percentage in IBooks
There is one thing I love about. It shows you the percentage of the book you have read. Is there any way IBooks will do that ?

Sadly, it does not. The only thing that iBooks shows is the number of pages remaining in the current chapter.

If you click on the page a bar will appear with your progress shown on the bar. In addition the page number and total pages for the book will be shown and also the number of pages to the end of the chapter. It tells you everything you need to know about where you are in the book. iBooks is one of the few ePub apps that pulls the full document into memory so it can take some time if the book is long for this to appear but it is there. If you change to landscape or portrait it will recompute these numbers.
