WWDC 2010: iBook Update

GDGT is reporting that today in the WWDC keynote, Steve Jobs announced that with the new version of iBooks for the iPad, you can now tap to bookmark your pages.

Also, you can now load PDFs directly into the iBook app. In the upper left hand corner there is a switch from Books to PDFs, and they each have their own virtual shelf.

It doesn't matter how much market share they grabbed initially. As long as it's back-lit, the Kindle is still WAY better.

Whoever can do the e-ink in color first, will be the ultimate winner.
