I see! I used to read azw3 books, but I switched to mobi a few months ago (some of my converted azw3 books didn't let me change fonts due to errors in the original epub books). So now I know why my font hack stopped working.

Now I have to choose to the nice font sizes and use azw3 or I continue to read mobi... mmmm

I will check it out, I was away from home for a few days. If you read azw3 the font_hack option is really easy to use and it worked really well for me.

But to be honoust: I don't see any reason to update your kindle, I prefered it a bit more when I got it out of the box, the updates I have installed looked nice, but there is no need to update. Ok, you can use goodreads now, but I works 100% better on my tablet for example. The only update i really enjoyed was the one who gave me an English - Dutch dictionary for free (I bought a dictionary at first, but that one sucks if you compare it to the incredible great free dictionary I got in an update from Amazon).

The new homescreen is awful, I don't have advertisements on my Kindle, but now I have a bar with recommended books and I don't like it at all. so I turned it off. Why did I update? I don't know, it looked cool when I first saw a picture, but well, I don't like it that much. The nicer option menu's are useful, but the older ones worked fine also.
