Yeah, I guess Apple's been getting away with some of that for years.
Having read some articles and watched a video (yes, that's what I do on a Friday night. Call me Mr. Excitement), the combination of the Kindle's new layout engine and the Bookerly font does some gorgeous things with kearning and ligatures that make a page on the Paperwhite look more like a page in a print book.
So I don't want to say they haven't done anything. I am just surprised at the excitement over something Kindle should have been doing for years.
