Plus making the dictionary font bigger

Plus reducing book margins to minimal

Plus using your own pics or book cover as screen saver. Not a must, just a nice to have bonus

The main downside is once you're used to the perks, it sucks when you lose jailbreak or have to get a new device that can't be jail broken.

My question is if you want all these things that are available in other Readers, why go with a Kindle?
