The updated iBooks app will feature a new continuous scrolling option, support for more than 40 languages including Korean and Japanese, and the ability to share passages from books via Facebook and Twitter.

I really thought today was the day with the inclusion of "Retina Display" on their "best selling Mac", the new 13" MacBook Pro. I expected to hear how crisp, how clear, and gorgeous the text is on the new MacBook Pro for reading iBooks.

This is my suspicion too. Apple wants iBooks to be an iOS exclusive. But who wants to spend money on a book they can only read on one device, when there are so many cross-platform alternatives out there? It's sad when Kindle offers a better option for eBooks across all your Mac devices than Apple itself is willing to offer.
Yeah right, you were just suggesting some file system management tools as a way to deal with the lack of cross-platform support for iBooks.
Nice try.

Yup. I'm never buying anything on iBooks until things work with my Macbook/ iTunes.
Not reading books on my iPhone. No way.
I think you would be pleasantly surprised. It's really not as bad as you think, especially if you are reading in bed.
