Ok. I can see that. I don't think Georgia has WingDings characters!
I must admit I tend to focus more on content than presentation, (which might be why I have Android/PC rather than iPhone/Mac), but I can see there can be advantages to a particular style, especially if it is relevant to the story, Medieval Gothic characters for example.
There is hope that the Kobo launch in Japan will trigger a new firmware release, maybe they've listened. Although I would still put a higher priority on curing the communication errors with Calibre, which is said to be down to firmware deficiencies.
