simple requirements: eink, epub, and custom fonts
Hey guys. I haven't posted here in a while, but ever since my nst got a messed up screen I've been procrastinating about buying a new one. So now with financial aid impending, i'm actually shopping. My requirements are simple, and as follows:
Eink display. The newer the better. The higher resolution the better. Size should be proportional to the display. I don't want to waste a ton of space on a dedicated keyboard or a slew of buttons
Epub support. I'd Like my reader to support epub2 and epub3 to the extent expected of an eink reader. That is to say that video and audio obviously aren't expected to work, but JavaScript should work well enough to navigate a text that depends on it.
I'm a bit picky about my fonts. To the point that I inept'd all my nook books, threw custom fonts into them, and read them with stanza instead of stock firmware Reader. I'd like to be able to just drop a font into the fonts folder and go.
All that said, I like android. In comfortable with it. If the reader has a sufficient modding community and these features are available third party, I'm okay with that.
Finally, down to size. I have a 7 inch tablet and a 10. The 10 is way too big. My wife's 8 incher is nice, but I was quite satisfied with the size of my nst screen.
I've read a lot of good reviews on The nst glow, but the modding experience was terrible on my nst. I'd prefer something a little more mature. Then again, maybe the newer nst glow is more mature?
All feedback is of course relevant and wanted.
