Interesting: iBooks can actually sync the reading position of ePub files you downloaded between multiple devices.

This was pleasantly surprising to me, since I'm using a random ePub file I downloaded off the web. Import it into iTunes and do an initial sync to get it on my iPad and iPhone. From there, it wirelessly syncs the reading position between my 2 devices without any hassle!

I'd expect this for something like the Kindle, iBooks, or any other ebooks you pay for, but not for free downloads and imports. Nice!

One thing I haven't checked yet -- I wonder if it syncs reading position for PDF files?

Yeah Apple has always been good with their media syncing. One thing Android is lacking in is the syncing of media.

I listen/watch to alot of podcasts and I haven't found a podcast client I liked that works on Android. When I had the iPhone it was so painless to sync up the podcasts with the computer.

This feature of wireless syncing of books between the iPhone and iPad is very interesting. I would have had thought you would have to plug it in to get the sync to work.
