Don, I can try to do that for you tonight or tomorrow. But I can tell you that "not great, but workable" is almost accurate. For my tastes though, it's not even workable. You can't change fonts. and when it comes to size, the font size can only go between two sizes: Pretty Small and Too Big.

To clarify, you open a .lit file and it's "just a tad too small" text with wide margins. So you, push the little text size button and bam! The text gets big and the orientation defaults to horizontal, so you have to turn the device sideways to read it. No other choices offered.

Actually I got it mainly for being able to drag and drop the .lit files and read without conversion. But the technology is still too immature and I don't read .lit files on it at all because of the poor options so far.

But of course, what I judge to be too small and too big is my opinion. But it's very irritating that on the large size it switches the orientation.

I'm off tomorrow, so I'll take and post pics. I guess I could do a mini-review and compare it with pics to my Kindle and my Sony, but I've never done a review before and I'm afraid!
