That said, I will continue to recommend the BeBook to anyone who is looking for an eBook Reader. It has great format support, easy to understand interface, font sizes are good for the majority of people, and the price is right. I'm just really picky.  I'm looking forward to future firmware updates from both companies, sooner or later they should adopt the best of both worlds and leave me with 2 awesome eBook Readers.

You should try OpenInkpot, or there is another firmware here that has FBReader embedded, much better font support for the formats that are supported. Non DRM files only though.
