A very obvious and desired update in regards to collections. This definitely helps to make ibooks preferred over the competition.

Print out books you buy on the store? Pretty surprised book authors allowed this.

The really odd thing I'm trying to get around is how often they change the look graphically. This is the 3rd icon they've used, and a completely new wooden background inside: much more "unpolished," like what you'd make yourself instead of a vibrant, stained collectible. Idk if I like it yet. The other features, however, are very nice.

Don't care since I can't use AirPrint without compatible printer! How about you get busy adding AirPrint support into Snow Leopard like you promised instead of wasting time updating apps with a feature I can't even use yet! FAIL!

No idea about the situation elsewhere, but here it is definitely not the app that holds back iBooks' success. It is the best ebook app available.

The content of the store is not even poor so far, really no back catalogue a huge gap between the free public domain titles (75 - 2000 years old) and "current" titles. Most great modern literature written between 1930 and the 1990s is completely absent. The few titles that do exist, have obviously been digitized using OCR software, received no editing whatsoever and contain tons of errors. No reason to waste money on that yet...

Yes, although I must admit that it's not alone in missing titles. I have a list of about 30 books I'd like to purchase, but cannot find on any of the bookstores: i.e. iBooks, Kindle, Nook, Kobo, Stanza, etc. iBooks at least has equal amount of books I want as the other stores. YMMV.

Collection should be called "Book Shelf" instead.

o iBooks is great is a great eReader.

o Collections was the only aspect making my organization a nightmare, but that is now somewhat resolved. I'd like to be able to organize via iTunes and edit the meta-data of non-protected items within iBooks.

o Pages export to EPUB is simple, albeit a little limited in scope, but usable for converting documents.

o iBookstore selection is paltry. I've tried using Kindle from my iPad. They have the content but I hate being pushed to Safari (which I understand) and then seeing the common website for Amazon.com without it defaulting to a specialized Kindle bookstore to make the shopping pleasant. Because of this I've bought no Kindle books for my iPad.
