Hmm, I checked and it still does copy and paste, but it now adds the source information from where the quote comes from. Doesn’t seem to be an option for disabling the source feature.

Copy/ Paste in Kindle for Mac no longer seems to work (version 1.10.1)

Boni, that’s interesting why the Kindle app is not available but the iBooks is. Do you know why that is?

gpvprasad, I’m sure there’s an Amazon app for Android, right?

Totally agree with you here.

Anestis, you’re absolutely right. Thanks for pointing that out. Those huge “page” numbers in the Kindle app and books is totally distracting to me.

Thanks, Brad, for the suggestion. I’ll look into it.

Julien, I keep hearing pretty good thing about the Nexus 7, but I don’t have that device. It’s definitely work looking into.

Both is looks awesome, but i only used iBooks so long, i try to find the kindle, and never found it in the market, because it is not available in my country.

i like the annotation tools much more on iBooks, which is useful for reading textbooks or materials, for students.

Last time I used the Kindle app ( a year ago) it didn’t have page numbers, just some weird numbers that had no meaning,s o there was no easy way tot ell how far into a book you were.

iBook at least gives you page numbers, and recalculates them depending on font, font-size, and device orientation.

I suggest that you take a look at Kobo’s lineup of ereaders/tablets. they have a great iOS app as well. It is a great product with all of the functions of the big players and uses the epub format with the ability to import ebooks from any source.

I’m kind of in the market for a mini tablet/reader and the nexus 7 has really attractive features and price, isn’t there a good reader on that compared to the 2 above?

thanks
