What is the advantage of Kindle? Does it has dictionary? Is it possible to use list of notes in Kindle? Page view is comfortable?

I did like that the Kindle application lets you pull up a list of your notes and marks without going back to the table of contents.One of the big advantages of the Kindle application is that Amazon has versions available for many platforms today, including the Kindle devices, Windows, Mac, iPhone, and BlackBerry. The system synchronizes where you are in the book and the notes you have made across devices, up to five devices registered per account. This conveniently lets you read your books on your smartphone even when the tablet isn't available.
On the other hand, the Kindle application is missing some things that iBooks has, including a dictionary (which is part of the Kindle device) and a feature that lets you search inside the book.

Which one is easy for downloading? If you are using iPad for a long time will you prefer kindle or iBook? The people who are using the applications can tell clearly rather than reading online about these applications.

But I found downloading books to my iPad via the Amazon app to be slightly more complicated. By default, my account delivered the books to my Kindle device; I had to go in the Archived Items section of the Kindle application to download it to the iPad.
In short, I found iBooks has two important features that the Kindle app doesn't have: search and support for the more open ePub format. But Kindle has a notably better selection of books available, and the ability to sync with multiple devices. For me, that makes it the clear choice.

IBook seems good. Reading, downloading, access everything is easy in iBook. Changing font size, page viewing mode is better compared to kindle it seems. I am going for iBook then..

I used to only use iBooks but I have just downloaded the Kindle app onto my phone too, so now I use both.

I love how easy it is to get books from Amazon and just use cloud to get them to the kindle app with one click.
