The problem with that though is it only works for non DRM ebooks, The average user shouldn't have to strip the DRM and manually manipulate the file in order to read the book in a decent font size.

I don't have the PW2, just a PW1 and I doubt I'll upgrade unless they do something about the font sizes, among other things, as I use my own font on my PW1. I find the built in fonts inadequate in size and contrast.
