Double-spaced isn't too horrible, I've read plenty of ebooks done that way. I don't particularly like it, but as long as it's a good book you stop noticing it pretty quickly. Font selection is more of an issue for me, if it's annoying to read it, that doesn't go away and hinders my enjoyment of the book, no matter how good it is.

I could do without the book title and progress though.

EDIT: I see now what you guys are talking about. I'm still getting a fair lot of text with bigger fonts on the iPad.
That left one's not too bad, although I'd prefer black on white background. Can you change to that, or is it light text on dark background only? For some reason the light-on-dark scheme makes my eyes go blurry after an hour or two so I avoid it. The right's pretty awful, I doubt I could put up with that.
