Marvin is excellent, no doubt about that, I like it and am looking forward to the iPHone version. At the same time, I use a number of different readers and I have no issues with any of them, really, because *my* needs do NOT involve taking notes, changing backgrounds (god, who would seriously want a crumpled paper background... but apparently some do... just not me) accessing dictionaries. I want to read a book... end of. And I will tend to use the easiest way of doing that. Currently, that is actually still Stanza. I never used any of its advanced features, because I didnt need them. Once the appearance and layout was sorted, and themes for night and day, I had no reason to change anything. In iBooks I have a particular font I like, and i prefer the "night mode" to the others. In Marvin, I've gone black on white. All that said... I still do most of my reading on my iPhone, and Stanza and Duokan are what I use.
Did I mention I am not pedantic, so if the book I read isnt *exactly* as the publisher or author wanted, but I can still enjoy reading it... why the hell should I give a rats about whether its exactly right? geez.
