P.S. There's one more thing i'd like to pick your brain about, if that's ok - do you know if there's some supposed lifespan for the e-ink display as well? I mean, my T2 is ten years old - how many more years the e-ink display is supposed to be good for before it throws the towel, so to speak?
I don't know of any. Over here (in the U.S.) eReaders were selling really cheaply in the 2nd hand stores, so I managed to find some old Sonys (the original PRS-500 is the oldest). The battery is all but dead, but the screen is still good. I have seen swollen (worn out) batteries break screens, however. And, of course, sometimes eReaders are dropped and the screen breaks (since the substrate is made of glass).

I haven't got a clue how to do this. Even though I used the eBook editor in Calibre, so far I can't find any reference to hyphenation in the book's two css files. I'm guessing the "hyphenation: none;" command has to be inserted somewhere, but I don't know where to insert it.
