I wrote a number of posts on the Pocketbook forum about getting PB 602 to display Arabic fonts properly. It is buggy, but if you fiddle with the fonts every time you open an Arabic epub, you can get it to work. I don't know if Pocketbook fixed the problems in later ereaders. I would like to see if Onyx does it right. One problem with Pocketbook is that they don't pay attention to any bug reports in English, so they never responded to my reports about Arabic bugginess. Frustrating.

I do not know how good the support is.

I would actually prefer pdf files as pdf files on onyx read as fast as epub. I once loaded an Idries Shah story book by mistake on my Onyx and the text was displayed in FBReader and CoolReader but not in PDFReader
