While I am on the topic of epub, which is the best reader for them on the Inkpad and does it work perfectly?

Also, I can not find anywhere that ships to Australia, besides Amazon, and the price is a lot more!
The downgraded firmware actually offers more formatting options for the stock reading app, as well as better support for quickly switching between ebooks. And I might be imagining things but I think the text could be darker as well.

As for shipping, Pocketbook France ships to the US. Of course, this is also the site that took my money, lied to me about shipping, and then ignored me, forcing me to yell to Pocketbook corporate. So buyer beware.
