Don't be silly. Some have no reason to wait till they know something to start complaining. It's a genetic defect caused by a shallow gene pool.

Really? I find Caecilia bold and non-bold very different. Are you talking about the kindle or standard version?

Either one.. .compared to all the other standard e-reader fonts, I see the least difference with Caecilia. (Something that only came to my attention when I switched readers in the middle of a book, and noticed that some single characters in the text were bolded, which I had completely failed to notice on the Kindle.)

I don't like seeing this edge while reading.

How do you even see it? You have to tilt it at an extreme angle to photograph it.

I made photo in angle, but I can see it even when I keep my eyes perpendicularly at middle of screen and look down to read last lines.
My PW2 don't have such a thing.

If that bothers you then I suggest you go back to reading paper books. You will never be satisfied with any ebook reader.

Is that a black line at the edge? Other than that I can't see what's wrong. If it is a black line then I can't remember if the PW2 has that but I don't think so. My Voyage certainly doesn't.

My PW2 has a similar black line at the bottom edge of the screen, if that is what Eltanin is referring to? I haven't ever noticed it before now, its not noticeable when reading and you can only see it when it's at an angle, like in your photo.

Same on my PW2. It's only visible if I hold it so I'm looking almost parallel to the screen.

That does sound abnormal to me, but I don't own a PW3. The Glo HD certainly didn't have it. If it bothers you, return it for a replacement.

I was reading an exchange between Culture Minds last night, and lo and behold! It was in bold. This is because standard Caecilia comes with a heavy set, which is to bold what bold is to standard. So, the best of both worlds. I read with text set to bold, and I still get bold
