I didn't realize Kobo had gotten rid of the Georgia font as well (I haven't upgraded a Kobo in a couple years). Maybe the royalties jumped way up. Hopefully, Kobo will never pull the Georgia font from their old readers, like Barnes & Noble.

If that's not their intent than they're doing a pretty job of doing it accidentally.
