So, in the name of keeping everything all nice and consistent on their device, Apple now requires that every single website offering eReader files for download add an extra link so that iPhones and iPod Touches can make the download.
Same is true for Stanza. The Stanza books need an "epub://" in order to be downloaded directly. A big bummer!
