I've written an iOS program that I call calibre connector that has the same basic functionality as the old calibre companion. I use a very different UI approach, one that is perhaps closer to the Kobo UI, but it connects to a Calibre server, downloads the meta data and books, then allows the user to pull up a book and open that book in the reading app of your choice.

I've been using the app on my iPads and iPhone since mid November and it suits my needs, but I thought others might want to try it. Thus my plan is to put it on the Apple App store as a free app and to release the source as open source.

As we all know, developers are terrible at testing their own code, so I'm looking for a few beta testers who are willing to give it a try and give me some feed back. If you are interested please let me know.
thanks
