Other Thoughts: In txt files, there are only two fonts available: Verdana and Arial. However, you can read books in any font you like, as long as you first convert the file to pdf. (I've been doing all of my reading in Garamond font, for example.) When you open the text file, convert it to the font you want, change the font size (I use 18 point, but it's up to you) go to Page Setup and choose 6in by 7.5in (no margins), and then save it as a pdf file. Voila! Your JetBook will easily be able to read this file. (You might want to choose "Full Screen" as your viewing option, which will make the display more aesthetically pleasing.)
ePub allows font embedding very easily. So you can use ePub to get whatever fonts you want. I'm not sure if you can use the same trick as you can with the 505 and 700 so you do not have to embed for each ePub if you want the same fonts.
