When you say, "looked good enough," to whose standards? Simply yours? You know as well as the rest of us that we have to do the best we can in the situation, which is, not all devices have great table support. And even those that do, still can have issues with HTML tables.

Slight non-sequitur: I have a customer (a white-label job, so the dude isn't my direct customer) that INSISTS he must have "pop-up tables." He doesn't understand that the only popping-up is zooming, as images. He's not HAPPY with html tables. Beats me, but he insisted that we had to change the HTML tables that we created, for ~30% of his tables, to be images, so that they would "pop up" when tapped.

Yup, being a Mercenary Ho sucks, but, at least I can say 'Hey, the client wanted it." ;-)

Usually these images are too small and do not look all that readable. On a 300DPI eInk screen, these graphics can be even harder to read. Plus, in most cases, the graphic text is smaller then the actual text.

You do have some odd clients.
