Doesn't the iPad get an iBooks update today (sans iOS4) to support PDF's?

Is iBooks going to be updated to support PDF's today? Also how do you get them into iBooks? Do you just drag PDF's to the iBooks folder in iTunes and after sync iBooks adds and separates them on the iPad?

You just add to library like any other epub book. As for the release I have no clue. I keep checking every few minutes for it. Haha

It doesn't show up in the app store by searching, but there is a thread in the iPad apps forum with the correct link. Click the link while in your computer and download it into iTunes, then sync. I'm downloading 1.1 right now.

It is now showing in the updates screen

Note that if you already have PDFs on iTunes before updating the iBooks app, I find that iTunes won't sync them. I had to remove them from iTunes and readd them, and then iTunes will sync them to the updated iBooks app. Weird.
