I am really not seeing where you can download FREE eBooks from either eBook.com or iBook.com.

Just import them into iTunes, same way you would an MP3 bought from Amazon. I've had a iPod for 5 years and an iPhone for 2 and an iPad for 5 weeks. I have never bought a song or book from Apple....Quote:

If you can't handle removing the DRM then buy books from Kobo, and use the Kobo app.... Or buy from Amazon and use the Kindle App..... Or buy from B&N and use the Nook app.... Or buy from fictionwise and use the ereader app.....or get PDF's and use Goodreader..... Lot's of options on the iPad. :)
Someone sent me an ebook of Dan Brown in PDF file. I have in my iPad a PDF lite app and an ebook reader app. I have tried dragging it but it won't add to my iPad. I know there is something wrong as to what I'm doing. I'm not a techie person. Someone teach me please in some simple instruction. Thank you!:confused::confused::confused:
Some PDF files are encoded with DRM and others are locked. Were you able to open that file on your computer?Quote:

If it is just drag the PDF file into the box next to the app name. If it does not support it, get Goodreader from the app store (best PDF reader)....
But, as iVan says, if it has some DRM on it, it may not open....
