Without the serifs and with the slightly wider space between lines, the letters just seem to pop right out at me. I understand it is because more of the background shows through and allows for more contrast with the letters.
Oh, thank you for that. When I spoke to Sony (at the Gadget Show in Birmingham on Friday) they didn't mention this could be done. I'm assuming you mean the Sony 505 and not the 700?
