The new calendar format has been one of the biggest drawbacks for me with ios7. My solution, and it isn't 100% satisfactory, was to purchase VO Calendar and use it instead. The app is ten dollars and the layout is a bit odd, but it's easier to manage than the native calendar layout. Also, when you

VO skipping pages on my 4s

Though I use both apps, I prefer the Kindle. I think the slection of books is greater for the Kindle and the overall reading experience feels more natural to me. Just my opinion, of course. Kimber On 9/23/13, Prof. Kadel wrote: > Hello list, > > I'm wondering if folks have a preference for iBook
