FBReader's original philosophy was to provide the user-specified look and feel across all input ebook types. The industry has obviously gone in the opposite direction, with all ebooks as ePubs and ePub Readers required to honour CSS.

thank you for that explanation ; it does makes sense for those reasons. personally i feel really strongly about reading ebooks which are beautiful, so the idea of no css support... well... horrifies me.
nonetheless, i do hope they will add this support for use on dedicated devices which have fast enough cpu, etc. to handle it. for me it's really an important part of the reading experience.
