More thoughts on CONNECT problems

This may have been covered, but can't find anything.

As one of the many reasons I wanted the Reader is that I have vision problems and need large print. In the horizontal mode on the Reader, it is just barely large enough, so am satisfied. Wish, like the old Rocket eBook, could download different fonts and point sizes, but can't have everything.

As Sony does tout the Reader as helpful to people with vision problems, what in the world were they thinking with the CONNECT Reader and with the store?

In both, the type size is way too small, and there is no way to enlarge it. Without my trusty magnifying glass, could not read it at all.

It is odd that when you go to the store, even though can enlarge the type on any other website with Firefox, can't do it here.

One hint if anybody has same problem. To search for books to buy, just go to the regular CONNECT website (http://ebooks.connect.com/). Here you can enlarge the screen, search or browse for books, read the descriptions and make a list of what you want. Then go back to the software to order the books.
