Well, I bought an iPad, installed Bluefire pdf reader and has never been happier!
I have tossed my Irex 1000DS and my Bookeen Opus into a dark corner..... The crispness of the display and iPads ability to show colors makes it absolutely outstanding! |

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. Last edited by lazyartist; 11-11-2010 at 10:03 PM. |

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.

I have non-DRM PDFs, but I can't usefully read them in Bluefire (GoodReader does decently), since Bluefire just shows page images. On an iTouch, this doesn't work well

One can hope that it will catch up to iBooks / Stanza on the ePub front and Goodreader / iAnnotate on the PDF front. |

The news about Bluefire which I discover here is interesting for me and I agree that the first app to do as well as Goodreader for PDF and iBook for ePub, will win me over quite fast !

I'm still on the hunt for one app that handles both well, but if I'm willing to put up with using separate apps for the two types I'm finding multiple options for reader apps. |
