I am always looking for a new ebook reader (for various reasons). I did check out your website when I first heard about Bookmaster but was strongly discouraged initially by your website. The slideshow (is that new) is okay, but a list of features would be good. The bits about Bookmaster compared to other readers is...underwhelming.

For example, there's no clear distinction (apart from price when you get to itunes) about what the difference is between the two versions.

Having said that, I'll probably give one of the versions a try (as long as they don't have ads or in app purchases, I'm half way there).

But, I've just found this thread, so I'm keen to check out your product.

My 'sweet spot' for an ereader would be an ability to list the books (I'm not a fan of the bookshelf look at all or the page turning experience - but that is only me).
I would like a list, with title, author and maybe the "comments" summary (even if it's only a short amount) from Calibre. The ability to view by Author and Series info (also from Calibre) would be a bonus. I have 3000 books from more than 999 authors (Marvin is stuck on 999, so I don't actually know how many), so I'm more interested in functionality (& metadata) than appearance.

Which version would be best for me?
