My guess is that the 500/505 goes up 2 points when you enlarge the font. Book Designer defaults to 10 point and that would make large be 14 point if I am correct. The books I create I use a base font size of 11 point which would be 15 point at large.

How large do you need to be able to comfortably read on your 500? If I can help you out, let me know. Any of the books in the ebook section I've formatted and you want a larger base font size, please let me know and I'll generate a new copy for you.

Actually, I haven't tried them. I know they exist, but I got my Cybook back in September, handed my 'pristine' and 'virginal' PRS-500 over to my Mother and never looked back. I'm kind of out of the loop as to how the hacks and enhancements stand.

I looked at the PRS505 and Kindle, thinking I'd put one on the card so I'd have something to use while waiting for mine to be replaced. But they're *ALL* backordered and I'm not so stupid as to pay fancy prices on eBay for one.
