So I've become somewhat interested in picking up a PW2 because of the Staples deal. I took a look at a PW2 in Best Buy, and I loved the responsiveness of the software and design of the hardware. What I didn't love, however, were many of the page rendering options.

So I've got some questions about what is possible when downgrading and jailbreaking the PW2. I've looked at some of the threads here, but I'm still somewhat confused as to what exactly is possible.

Here's what I'd like to do:

- Load custom fonts
- Decrease the size of the margins
- Turn the light completely off
- Have more options for line height

JBpatch seems to cover a lot of this, but the thread can be a little intimidating.
