Yes, updates are very few and far between in previous models. I wouldn't have high expectations that they will do a firmware update on the newest models to provide better font options. You can, however, copy your own fonts onto the Sony ereaders and for non-DRM books use calibre or Sigil to customize the book to your preferences for font size, line spacing and font type. I've been using a font called Lexia DaMa which is very similar to the Caecilia font on the Kindle.
