thanks for the info guys

- You can load any TrueType or OpenType font onto the machine, and read any book in any font.
- Proper support for font families (real bold/italic fonts) compared to the Sony's synthesised font styles.
- A choice of 12 font sizes in which to read, compared to 3 on the Sony.
tbh, i have read your posts in other topics where you make these statements, and i always thought, but whats the point? i dont get a choice when i nip down to the book store, i cant say "i will have Eragon in comicsans please"

however having said that, having it is surely a benefit, i might just want to.

out of curiosity have you changed your font?

- Dictionary lookup, with a choice of hundreds of dictionaries to choose from.
this should have been in my "things i like about the cybook" list, i often want to look up a word i dont know or one that im not quite sure of the meaning.

but how may i ask does it work, if there is no touch screen, do i have to scroll all the way from top to bottom just to check a word?

again thanks for the help im swinging back towards the cybook now.
