As a designer, I absolutely love Minion for body text and Myriad for headings and sub-headings. I noticed one or two publishers used Minion for their fiction titles a few back, but most I think prefer Times New Roman (ughh).
Although a sans-serif, I recently started using MS Calibri for some of my shorter texts and have started using it on my iPhone -- it seems to display well on the PRS-505. Microsoft installs this font with MS Office 2007 (Win) and also Office 2008 (Mac).

One of the Microsoft ClearType fonts, included in Windows Vista and Microsoft Office 2007, designed to give clearer on-screen rendering by using dithering at the RGB pixel level.
An OpenType font that includes both lining figures and oldstyle figures.
If you want a nice legible/readable fixed-width font, try Inconsolata or even MS
