One question about the fonts on the Glowlight 3. Looking at the firmware, there are a set of fonts installed for the system and another set installed for the ereader software. The list of fonts that seem to be available are:

Code:

# AndroidClock  (regular only)
  Ascender Sans
  Baskerville
# Clockopia (regular only)
  Courier
# Droid Arabic Naskh (regular only, Arabic)
# Droid Naskh Shift Alt (regular only, Arabic)
# Droid Sans (regular and bold)
# Droid Sans Armenian (regular only)
# Droid Sans Georgian (regular only)
# Droid Sans Hebrew (regular and bold)
# Droid Serif
  Georgia
  Gill Sans MT Pro Book (regular only, book and light)
  Joanna Sans
  Lato (regular only) (western & Polish)
  Lime Rock (regular only)
  Malabar
  Mundo Sans (normal, book, light)
  Namum Gothic (regular only)
# Roboto (normal, condensed, light, thin)

Oddly, some of the Droid Sans and Roboto variants show Mundo Sans as the font name.

# indicates system font, others are from the bnereader.apk file.

regular only = no italic, bold, bold-italic variant supplied.

I'm curious as to how many of these fonts show up as a choice when reading so if anyone who has a Glowlight 3 is willing to answer, it would be appreciated.
