iBooks 1.1.1 Released with Cool New Features

Apple released iBooks 1.1.1 today and it includes some nice upgrades.

The upgrades include multiple media improvements like the ability to access videos and audio thats embedded into books.  In addition, photo viewing and a built in dictionary is now included.  Apple also enhanced the PDF reader and stability issues have been fixed.

If nothing else, with 3 different choices for reading digital books on the iPad (B&N, Kindle, iBook), the fact that Apple continues to upgrade and add features to their app makes me think spending the money on iBooks instead of the other readers versions makes the most sense.

I imagine that this is just the beginning of what Apple has planned for its reader.
