It wasn't all that small.

"Open" is much overrated, given the triviality of converting between ePub and KF8. Yes, you're right of course in saying that ePub is an "open standard" and KF8 isn't, but who gives a damn when you can seamlessly convert from one to the other? It doesn't make the slightest practical difference one way or the other.
I'm only going by what the OP is posting. The OP wants open and did not mention anything about converting. So, I'm still going to stick with my recommendation of a Reader that handles ePub. And because Amazon does not handle ePub, it's not open and it's not appropriate until the OP says otherwise.
