I'm currently reading 2 books and have each in hardcover and in iBooks...
Yet figure I'm not alone in this issue among the iPad owners and figured I'd ask.

The Kindle's eInk display looks exactly like a laser printer output while the iGadgets's displays are like your average glossy computer display with all the negatives that one associates with them plus all the smudges from using the touch interface. It really is a suboptimal experience, to say the least.
I think that Jeff Bezos was right: "People buy an iPad to play Angry Birds, and they buy a Kindle to read Stieg Larsson." Dang!
But your statement of, " It really is a suboptimal experience, to say the least." needs to have for me on the end of it. Please don't try to judge my reading experience... Especially when that kindle won't let me read in the dark.
I prefer iBooks/ kindle on iPad. Mostly because its with me most of the time, easier to turn pages while eating, and the already mentioned light source the iPad gives off. I do wish ebooks were a bit cheaper though
I prefer real books and the tactile experience that goes along with it as well as the smell. Plus my eyes would get tired by reading 2 or more hours and staring at a screen.
Doing that for 8 hrs at work and prefer the real book.
