at any rate that's just my 2 cents

In my previous posts regarding choices, I mentioned being able to change font sizes and front-light brightness quickly by swiping the sides of the screen. No where did I mention internet browsing--not something I've ever been interested in doing on any of my readers...not sure where you got the idea I was talking about internet browsing!

And I agree with Meera. In addition to font size and front light adjustments--font weight, margins, justification, line spacing, and tap zones are all adjustments that should be customizable by the user to allow for an optimal reading experience.
