Any hints?

I can confirm this. Your problem is the first error: AnnotationsAction.genesis() tries to instantiate a libiMobileDevice right before initializing self.menu, so when the exception is thrown you wind up with, well, no menu.
It is definitely incorrect to assume that this class can always be instantiated: it depends on shared libraries that may well not be present.
Fix that works for me attached. (As a zipped diff because mobileread doesn't accept diff attachments: why, mobileread, why?!)
