Yes, my next task will be to try and find a classic roman font which is available under a licence that lets me modify it, and then I'll post the results up here. There should be something similar to Georgia available on linux etc.
There's no end of cool sci-fi looking fonts for kindle, but almost nothing for those of us who just want the thing to look as close as possible to a normal book.
In the meantime I've attached a pic of how my Kindle 3 now looks with the modified Georgia!
