What do you like for your margin then? Don't tell me 0.45em...
In my case, my margins in the books are set to 0:
Code:
body, html {
/* Basic Styling for HTML and BODY Sections of a File */
	border-width:	0;
	height:	100%;
	margin:	0;
	orphans:	1;
	padding:	0;
	widows:	1;
}
On my Kobo, itself, I've got the margin setting all the way down to 0. The text in the book is pretty close to the edges of the screen (maybe 1/8"). Eye-balling it, I'd say that's almost 1em (at the usual font size I've got the Kobo set to use) of margin that the device is already adding to the book. Changing the font size doesn't change that margin: it's either a hardware constraint or it's built into the device firmware somewhere where I can't get to it.
