Kindle Fire subpixel rendering bug
I wonder if anybody else has noticed that the Kindle Fire's official ebook reader incorrectly does subpixel rendering in reversed landscape mode (landscape mode with the power button on the left).
The result is colorful shadows beside letters. No such shadows occur in the browser--it's a problem solely with the Kindle app.
I just sent them feedback about this.
There may also be a subtler effect in reversed portrait mode, but I am not so sure.
p.s. Does the Kindle Fire index books for searching? I did a search in the included dictionary and it was very slow, more like the super-slow search in the Android Kindle app, and not like a "real" Kindle.
