OMG

So basically iBooks is worthless until mobile Webkit is updated to supported @font-face? That is a massive, and frankly irredeemable, deficit. I was truly expecting Apple to provide reader software that outclassed the competition in terms of functionality and design, but this is ridiculously poor.

I expect proper ePub support will have to wait for iPhone OS4, we'll have to see what tomorrow brings.

[Anyone who's tempted to defend their recent purchase with a comment that embedded fonts don't matter should just not bother...]
