Surely the software could use a 1:1 bitmap font and achieve the same clarity with text???
Since eInk readers sell for at least two years, your trouble with antialiasing is the first example of it I read about on those (very active) forums, and there isn't massive reaction of people saying they have the same problem, I imagine there isn't much public demand for such feature. Possibly the most easily attainable non-aliased mode on a reader would be to acquire a reader capable of running open source OpenInkpot, and add the neccessary code in it.
