Once you pass 40yrs or so and need reading glasses, increasing the font size helps but makes full justification w/o proper hyphens look horrible. Before I converted all my files to epub I used the firmware hack to turn off full justification for my LRF files as well.

Full justification in a printed book with hyphens looks great but is a disaster in an ebook reader without hyphens and an increased font size.

It would be nice to have a flag in the settings of any reader that allowed you to turn full justification on or off.
