It's a very cool ebook reader and covers show up fine - both SVG and not SVG.
When iOS5 broke Stanza, I looked into various alternatives. iBooks was one of the finalists (along with Bluefire and MegaReader) but came up short in two areas -- It doesn't interface directly with Calibre over wi-fi like Stanza does, so loading books is not as easy ... and there is much less customization of the reading page. Much less. But it's a good alternative and since Amazon says this latest Stanza version will be the last, I may end up one day having to go to iBooks or something else.
