Q: My wife and I each have an iPad 2.  When we want to share an iBook, we have to exchange iPads.  Is there any way for us to share the books on our own iPads?

My wife and I each have an iPad 2.  When we want to read the same book we both have to pay for it trade iPads.  Is there a way to download a single purchase to both iPads or at least to "loan" the book to the other one?

iPad 2, iOS 5.1.1

    Based on what you have described, it appears you each have your own AppleID. Adding each other's Apple ID to the device would permit this. There is really no legal and fictional way to "lend" books otherwise ( at least not iBooks purchases).
