And none of them seem to be aware that you can sideload your own fonts.
I agree....is it too much to expect that reviewers have more than a vague notion about how to give a considered assessment of the devices they are 'reviewing'. An earlier poster referred to the Goodereader reviewers as Tweedledum and Tweedledee. The kindest way I can refer to them is as a pair of twits, and I think their cameras and Youtube account should be withdrawn until they have attended 'How to Contruct an Impartial and Informative Review 101'
