Anybody used it? Any reviews?

"The easy way to create ePub and Kindle books!"
"Are you looking to support the growing number of eBook readers that use ePub? Are you spending too much time trying to properly format your books instead of focusing on writing?"
[Or reading, for me.]
"Legend Maker for Mac OS X takes all the hassle, confusion, and mystery out of creating perfectly formed ePub and Kindle books so you can do what you do best, write great stories!"
[$99, not cheap. Aimed at content sellers, not hobbyists. Still, a "sold" for me, if it means I don't have to jerk around with zipping and unzipping an ePub just to fix some tiny flaw in the .opf.]
"ZappTek has taken the tools used to produce Legends books for the iPhone and made them available to you."
[I assume those are "books-as-apps", not iBooks volumes. Anyone bought one? Do they look decent?]
"With some simple additions to any Word or RTF manuscript (no HTML required!) you can create books that look great on the Kindle, iPad, Sony Reader, ibis reader, bookworm, and any other reader that supports the ePub standard."
[Heavenly, if true. Direct conversion from RTF without errors would be ideal. Would be even better if they import .rtfd documents.]
"How about a Table of Contents? Legend Maker makes that easy as well. Simply add bookmarks to your manuscript and Legend Maker will automatically generate a Table of Contents — fully accessible via an eBook reader’s contents listing (including the Kindle’s Menu button!). It’s what your readers expect and, with Legend Maker, it’s what your readers get."
[Awesome.]
