I would just like to add that besides Stanza I've had very good reading experiences with the eReader and Bookshelf apps on the iPhone - both also available in the app store. eReader has better navigation options, color themes and better selection of fonts than Stanza, and it's easy to get books downloaded from the eReader/Fictionwise web site. It is limited to Palm eReader format books but much better than Stanza for reading Palm-format books. Bookshelf has good navigation, color and fonts, and supports a lot of different non-DRM'd formats. It's drawback is cost: $9.95 where everything else is free. And I've found it more difficult to use the "Shelfserver" to install books on the iPhone for Bookshelf than either Stanza or eReader. This is all very subjective of course, we all have our favorites when it come to the look and feel of the reading experience. But all in all I have found the iPhone to be very acceptable for reading my ebooks. Cheers!
