If I had known the epub support on the 500 would not show justified text, I would have never sent it in the first time and saved myself all this trouble.
I've been reading ePub with my 505 for quite a long time now. Once I realized how easy it is to fix the CSS of ePub to use whatever fonts I want, I was done with LRF. eBooks (even left justified) look so much better with a nice font that has a good weight, true italics and true bold. Font support for ePub is nice and fast. If you embed fonts for LRF, you slow things down way way too much. I've gotten to the point where italics and bold just don't look good with LRF.
