You don't have to reinstall everything when you upgrade the OS, it saves it all for you.

I had trouble, too, but I got it to work. First download the ibook free app on your ipod. Then I went on Safari (on the ipod) to kaplanpublishing.com/itunes. There is a whole library of free Kaplan stuff. It's great! My problem was I was trying to put it on itunes on my computer, but when I did it straight from the ipod it worked. Hope it does for you, too.

Yeah, unfortunately there is no way to purchase iBooks from Itunes. You have to purchase it by opening the iBooks app on your iDevice. It doesn't really make sense, given that we can purchase music, movies, TV shows, and even apps on Itunes, but not books.
