Using the Unicode Patch (see Sony PRS-505 Developer's subforum here), you can set your default font to be whatever you have on your computer in .ttf form. I personally hate how Times New Roman looks when the font size is tiny, so I find the patch invaluable in making my books easier on the eyes. No need to embed fonts, and page turns are just as quick, I think, as with the original fonts. Of course, the patch comes with its own set of problems, such as having to reapply every time you turn off the device completely (soft resets, etc.), and causing some problems with Calibre such that I usually do a soft reset before loading new books on to my Sony. However, I only load new books once a month or so, and perhaps even less now that I've finally played around with font sizes and fonts enough.
ETA: Just adding that "reapply every time" only entails popping in the SD card with the fontmapper files on it and applying it, a process that takes less than a few mins.
