The only difference that I see between the Firefly and the Moon Light is the screen resolution: 1024x758 and 1024x768, respectively (which may just be a typo). What am I missing?

I also want to be sure of something before I order one or the other. The features listed on the ereader store site state "Font size and family change..."; does that mean that you can install your own TTF font faces or just that you can choose from within an Onyx provided selection of font familes?
thx,
The new Firefly will be available in November for sure. It is already in production. The correct resolution is 1024x758. EInk produces 6" HD screens in this resolution only.
W.r.t. font family - you can install easely your own fonts and use them for reading of some formats (e.g. EPUB , FB2) and Reading software (FBReader, Coolreader) in all Onyx Boox readers. In PDFs the fonts are embedded and no changeable.
