But for practically all of those apps, Wulf, you get what you pay for. Meaning, you get little in terms of quality. (In the case of i2Reader, despite promising signs, you don't get real quality even after you pay for it.)

Also, I think it's unfair only to juxtapose the iPhone's $4.99 price tag to that listing... when Marvin for iPad is free as well. I for one would expect that a tablet, rather than a mobile phone, would be the main reading device for people. In that sense, Marvin for iPhone may be understood as an "extension" of the original (iPad) Marvin e-reader: if you want the "ultra-mobile" extension of Marvin for iPad, you pay the $4.99 to get that extra functionality. I'd see nothing wrong with that line of reasoning.
