I was thinking of buying Kindle mainly because of the Read-to-Me function.

Note that the read-to-me function on the Kindle works only on selected books; the author/publisher has the right to say NO. And many have (I have a Kindle 2 and many books for it). When you look at a book in deciding whether to buy or not, you are told Yes or No, so no surprises.
There is an iPhone/iPad Text-to-Speech app. I dont know whether it works with books (iBook or Kindle) or not.

Could somebody please make this app? Where should I ask so that a developer might be inspired with this idea?

It doesnt work that way. The publisher of the book decides whether a book is text to speech.
You do know that you can download audiobooks to the iPhones?

But the books that I want read are all in the public domain.

iBooks has been updated a while ago to support media (other than just the written word). It is up to the creators of the book to add this.
