not enough room in what ? do you mean the internal memory ? would the special characters really take up that much space ? wouldn't it just be a matter of integrating a more complete font ? Times New Roman and Arial contain probably every glyph you could imagine (and more !) but the font file is only a few kb ; shouldn't that be enough ? what else do you need to support the glyphs, apart from a fontface which contains them ?
anyway if that's the case and it's impossible to update the eb1150 / 1200 to support these glyphs, then i
really hope they make these changes in the next versions, and that the next versions become available soon.
it would be nice if they could support unconverted html and /or mobi as well in the next versions (although i don't get the impression this is necessarily in their plans) ; both of these had no trouble displaying this file, and the html got the formatting right on the first try, too. not to mention how much easier it would be to just slide an html file onto the memory card, without worrying about conversion, end formats, etc... and, when you found an ocr mistake in the PG book you were reading, you could just correct it in the original html file, and transfer the new copy over ! so simple.
