Nice idea; I could use one in conjunction with my Bose Noise-Reducing Headphones when the uproar gets too much for me. I'll plan to get one.

Thanks. I'm a recent convert to audio books and these would have appealed. However, about 98% of my listening is done while driving or walking and I'm too cheap to have a data plan, so I'd have been outta luck. And coins.

Moon+ Reader Pro
Mantano Reader Premium (my favorite)

A lot of people also like FBReader and Cool Reader, but those are free. I was using the free version of Mantano, but ended up buying both Mantano and Moon+ Reader because I was in the same boat as you with the coins.

Thanks all. I ended up buying both, why not? I can make up my mind down the road. And I got 90 coins back on my Calibre Companion purchase.
