And I have no trouble with it whatsoever. I'm leaning more toward Adobe Garamond Pro these days, because I like how it works with Goudy. Myriad is what is commonly paired with Minion, and I find that a bit dull. A lot of appeal has to do with the exact size of the type, which, I don't think there are enough gradations available on any device. (only 6 available on my sony, most of which are unusable.) I'm sure there's some device-specific rendering features that can't be compensated for on the fly in the epub2 spec.
