At present I think Shubooks looks like the best of the bunch. Had to change the font size without gestures, and set the flag to restart where I left off. Like the dropbox. I was a bit worried when I saw the Chinese all over the AppStore but works well in english.
It isn't Stanza, but it is under active development with Active support.
Amazon should release the stanza code if they aren't going to develop it. I'd spare some time to bug fix it (as well as c++, I speak objective c and java). Grrr...

I did not like shubooks at all. Admittedly I was using the free version, however, it removed entire portions of my ebook, somehow. The same epub file that I was viewing in other readers had a foreword, it was just simply gone in shubooks. There were other quirks. I will test this out again by re-downloading the app to make sure and edit if I was somehow completely crazy when I tested it, but I did test it a couple of times.
