There's no reason that a) an epub shouldn't look great on the reader in the first place and b) I can't change fonts, sizes, margins, indents, line spacing, etc. on the reader. If a reader comes out that does those things, I might switch. ...

Of the two new readers announced, one has more fonts, and the other has more sizes. So who knows. And yes, Sony could do all of the above in a new model of reader, but let's face it, their track record on software is not very good. They have been much more of a leader/innovator/all-around great in the hardware department.

I think the Nook Touch (if it is like the Nook and Nook color) will have some customization (margins, spacing, ...).
