I have a PocketBook 360 and you can load up basically as many fonts as you want on there to use - trouble was I found that I was spending way more time fiddling around, trying to find the "perfect font" instead of reading! In fact I found the PocketBook 360 just way too customizable overall which was cutting into my actual reading time.
So I'm wondering if Amazon are deliberately limiting the font choices because having too much choice is sometimes worse than having no or limited choice.
I have to say that once I get into a book, I'm not sitting there thinking "oh I'd prefer this in a different font"
Sometimes we need to be careful what we wish for!!!
