i2Reader has a wide range of display options, which includes WOB - in fact you can customise to any colour (e.g. light yellow on a dark blue background, etc). You have to go into preferences to make the change (not a single tap like Stanza, but at least it's there).

UPDATE: I have since found that formatting options are quickly available as follows: Tap once, and then tap on the up arrow (inverted V) at the bottom of the screen. Here you can adjust brightness and font size. Tap twice, and you can select from a range of previously defined display options.

It is a paid for eReader (£2.99), but after testing all the others I could find, and rejecting them, this is my Stanza replacement. It's not perfect and I am currently chasing the developer to fix a few things, but personally, I find it stands heads and shoulders above the others - and I paid for a few, like MegaReader, and was disappointed with all of them.

UPDATE I have now given up on i2Reader as they are not answering any emails and Apple refuse to do anything about it (the lack of support), so I am issuing a WARNING to stay away from i2Reader.

By contrast, I have discovered that the developer of MegaReader is actively working on meeting the requests of Stanza fans - see http://bit.ly/vCMqQi
