Also, it looks to me like the Sony LRF renderer either doesn't adjust inter-letter/intra-word at all or has very tight constraints when doing so, making it even more difficult to space the words attractively.

Exactly the issue with current e-readers. That's why I hate fully justified text. It actually causes eye strain because of the inconsistent spacing due to the discrete pixel size and resolution.
