just got an ipad and i'm loving it. i use Chrome on my pc. i'm trying to sync bookmarks but my research tells me i need to first sync chrome with IE and then that'll sync with the ipad - is this the only way? i tried xmarks which worked the first time thru but then i kept getting an error message on chrome that their was an invalid url. i can't seem to get past the error message. any advice would be appreciated.
thanks!

I use Firefox. I go into bookmarks, export my bookmarks to my desktop. Open Safari, import my saved bookmarks then check sync in iTunes. Pain in the butt. I don't add new bookmarks often though so I only do that when I know I've accumulated a few new bookmarks.

You do it the same way with Chrome. Export your Chrome bookmarks, import them into safari and sync them through iTunes.
