Meh, the HTML parser is even worse than that. It seems that POS has absolutely no usable support for html entities whatsoever, named or numeric. Which means that any attempts to get the thing to display an ampersand should prove interesting, as encountering an ampersand apparently causes it to just swallow that and the following character. Strangely, putting German umlauts into the html as naked UTF-8 works just fine, but that doesn't help with the ampersand problem.

The worst of that is that the FB2 parser suffers from the same problem, thus rendering two of the ostensibly supported formats damn near unusable. Three, if you count ZIP.

To recap: TXT, GIF, JPG, RAR, and PDF (formatted for the small screen) are confirmed to work in a usable fashion. HTML and FB2 have very limited usability, and ZIP doesn't work at all. With that track record, I'm almost afraid to try any of the remaining formats.

Yup. Found it. Thanks!
