Then it would get down to the choice of staying with 5.3.8 and use your own fonts, or upgrade to the new firmware with new features, and omit your own fonts...
True, but I haven't been wildly impressed with lab126's attention to detail or quality of programming. Some of the fonts there are significantly better than the stock ones, so until something changes from Amazon, the USE_ALT_FONTS is one of the reasons for keeping my PW1.
I guess I'll keep using what I have until Amazon forces my hand. (I'm not holding my breath on Amazon)
