Thank you all for your feedback! I'll give stanza a try and see how well it works. I've tried renaming files with the xml extention to html, and it didn't quite work out. I wanted the xml version of the file converted, as this would preserve any formatting attributes found in the DAISY content. As it stands, I'm much more impressed with the readability of files available in the iBooks app, than I am the read2go app. Being able to search text, being able to use the command to move by page, and the fact that braille support just seems better in iBooks are my reasons for choosing it over Read2go.
Thank you all again for your responses!
