ebook - suggestions for format via buzztouch (iOS)

i have an ebook I'd like to publish as an app. Would it be best for me to wait for the page flip option to be launched, or should i look for a dedicated ebook option, like lulu.com? Any suggestions?

I just published a ebook for a photographer that worked out pretty good using BT. I would have liked the page flip feature but the only real way to do it is implement Leaves or something similar. What I did was split the book up by chapters with corresponding menu links instead of just embedding one long book into the app. Just as a FYI If you are already a Apple Developer you can apply to be in their iBooks program **but** you will have to be able to provide the epub file and an ISBN. btw, I used multiple PDF files...

@everest11 do you have a link to the app, I want to do something similar but I don't know whether to wait for the page flip or go the route you went.
