Are there DRM-free examples you can point to? The reader software on both devices is very similar, but perhaps this due to the font. The Kindle uses a commercial font, and the iLiad is using a free font. Allowing the MobiPocket Reader to use a different (user selected) font is supposed to be on iRex's list of things to do, but I have not heard of any delivery schedule. Note that free fonts can be as good as commercial ones, but Amazon had the luxury of choosing just the right font for the Kindle based exclusively on how it looks displaying e-books.
