For Android, there are Kindle and Nook apps, just for starters. Then
there's Aldiko, which reads ePub and PDF formats, is super-stable,
sports the best-designed interface of the three, and IMO is the best
of the lot.
Regarding iBooks, if you plan to use it only as a reader, should be no
problem. However, if you plan to use it to create and sell your own
e-books, be aware that the EULA mandates that you must sell your
creations only in the iBooks store and nowhere else.
