Thanks for that!
As I pointed out above, the Onyx Boox 60 reviewed here on MR states that FBReader is on the device, which to me means FB2 is support (as you have confirmed) - not sure when they added it or if it was always there but overlooked, but either way having FB2 makes me a happy-chappy!
Any chance of someone posting any snaps of an FB2, and maybe a brief description of the options and so on (I'm assuming it will be very similar to other FBReader devices, like PB360, but it would be nice to see).
Also, anyone know if the firmware for these babies has a lot of development in Eastern Europe (like other readers that include FB2 - the Hanlins, PocketBooks, etc.)? That would explain the inclusion of FBReader, although.
Support of FB2.zip files is not a biggie for me - it saves a little space, but I don't zip them anyway as nearly all my FB2s are less than 1MB each (usu. 500-800kB), and on a 4GB SD card who really cares?
