Just a lil FYI, for you all that are having trouble with the iBooks, freezing when moved this is what i discoverd...im new to MAC, so i just learned something:

"In the event of a drop, your iBooks Sudden Motion Sensor (SMS) instantly parks the hard drive heads so they wont scratch the disks on impact, reducing the risk of damage. When the module senses your iBook is level, it unlocks the hard drive heads automatically."

Apples Exact words
