Alisa, I totally agree. it seems to be - Kindle exclusives are not topaz, but topaz are Kindle exclusive.
Your comment about "barely above OCR" makes sense. I've seen comments about not being able to change the font size in topaz, which is not true, (time for the myths thread?), but increasing the font size doesn't improve the experience
I try very hard to avoid topaz, but if I
really want to read the book, I will. I just have to understand that I'm locked in.
