Happy New Year!!

9 font sizes in what ebook format or where. I just checked in both a mobi and an epub and it only displays 3. And Yes I just validated that I have the latest firmware.
As far as the contrast, this has been thoroughly discussed in other threads. Yes the PPI resolution of the 5" screen is higher than for the 6" screen because the number of pixels is the same, that that has nothing to do with contrast. It's the same eInk display as on the Sony 300. Some people think the higher ppi looks better but it's very clear to me that contrast on the Sony 300 and the PP is significantly lower than on the Sony 505 or Kindle2.
