So what is the advantage of the Kindle book reading app over ibooks. Ihaven't really played with either one. On iBooks I was able to readcontinuously page by page and I could touch to read a line but Icouldn't figure out how to read the previous or next line. The rotorlet me choose to flick through characters and headings but not lines.If it was reading continuously it would flip pages automatically but Icould only manually turn the page by going to the page chooser andthen flicking up and down. Probably just some gestures I don't knowabout. I thought a three finger flick left/right would turn the pagelike moving between pages of apps in the main screens.

Question, can you actually search for books and stuff? I couldn'tfind an
option to do that.

Haha. Hi,
I'm trying it out right now. I don't think you will bedisappointed with
the accessibility.  I'm able to read by line/ word/ character, and
continuous reading with a 2 finger flick down seems to work just fine.
Actually, when you first open the book, it tells you the voiceovergestures
you can use to read.  including highlighting and selecting text, etc.

It's a good thing it is May 1 and not April 1, or I would thinkthis was
a joke. Is this really true, or am I dreaming? Has anyone tried itout yet-- determined whether the navigation is as spectacular as iBooks andthe
Nook app?
