I'll wait for a while on that opportunity - so far I've a workaround for the one issue that really annoyed me.

BTW, they've added a nice feature for fonts: clicking Bold on the font menu bar now shows a slider with four levels of emboldenment.

These pictures are in the file: framework-res.apk in the folder /system/framework
To cut or replace them, you need to have the root and carefully replace the modified apk file.

No. Not only these directories, but also:
/mnt/sdcard/adobe/resources/fonts - was "font" (sorry for the mistake)
and / or
/mnt/sdcard/fonts
And for those you do not need root

Well, in that case, we should suggest Onyx, for some next firmware, to make them screensaver wallpapers external to the .apk, to allow for user customization.
(And of course, renaming the packages of their Onyx customized software in order to allow for the installation of the originals alongside - this should not take much work and maybe could be achieved soon)

Is the i86 heavy to keep on hands for long reading sessions ?
After a while i should put my m92 on a table, or better a stand.
If i keep it on my knees my neck suffer :-)

Still waiting for Nate to post that review... I prefer written text as I find with videos that people just talk too much and don't show enough. I sometimes skip over parts only to find out that 10 minutes later in the video they're still looking at the same screen!

I look forward to the review, but I am willing to wait until he gets as many applications as possible from the play store working. That way anyone who wants a specific app will have a good idea whether or not it will run.

Not that Booxtor might not make an improved firmware that does more later, that's why we buy from him.

Yes. These directories are correct for your fonts for Onyx Neo Reader and all the built-in programs in the system Onyx readers.

/mnt/sdcard/adobe/resources/fonts
( or /mnt/sdcard/fonts )
depending on the version of the software ( later - older ).
In the reader will see this as:
flash/adobe/resources/fonts

That's for the i86 then. On the T68 1.7.2 you still have to paste these fonts in the system folders to have them appear in the choice list of Neo Reader and Onyx Reader.

No. I have also Onyx T68 and checked on him.
Unless that they've broken something again, because I still have not installed the 1.7.2 version.

The i86 is not heavy. It weighs about the same as my Fire HD.

The only apps I want to add is the Calibre Companion and the app for a local newspaper, and I doubt Nate would install that

No, if you read the specs at
http://ereader-store.de/en/onyx-boox...ont-light.html
you will find that it is about 2/3 the weight of an M96.
Also, because the center of mass of the reader is closer to your hand than an M96 when holding it, it is much less off-balance feeling, and less fatiguing to hold.

Just got mine.

Has anyone been able to log into their google account (via play store or calendar) with 2-factor auth? I haven't had any success - it usually just says the username/password doesn't match - normally it should open up the browser and direct me to login using the browser.
