Hey, April, I responded to your post on the other thread, and I think it is important to note here what I wrote, to see if anybody has an idea.

You said the book Echo Park was OK on the Large size, but I'm reading that book right now, and have the same trouble with Large in horizontal being one size smaller than the first books I got.

So, here's a case where two of us have bought the same book, but got different Large size. What the heck is going one here?

As I was the OP, I hope I won't offend anybody, the the discussions on whether Sony or the publishers are to blame is not the point.

Here is a case where two different Readers have different font sizes with the very same book purchased through Connect.

It may be a defect in the Reader, the software, the firmware, or whatever, but gol' darn it, we bought the Reader and the books from Sony, so THEY are responsible and should do something about it.

But, of course, they won't, alas.
