I tried a few books, and with all of I have about 1 cm on each side, and 2 cm on each of the top and bottom, plus the huge black screen margins. This isn't necessary, and it should be changeable. Landscape -- with 2 pages -- is unusable. I don't care to do 1 page across in landscape, but it is likely the same margins as portrait: too big, but less too big.

I have never found an android-based reading app I particularly like. Maybe I'll see how fbreader works on the Vox, but I rather liked seeing my books on the front page. Though I suppose if there were one that worked seamlessly with Calibre, I'd be okay with it.

I tend to believe that Calibre will update soon with Vox support, and probably someone will figure out a way get it to work with the content server.
