Ah, yes, that's possible.

Although this might also be a problem by Amazon's font library. I had a similar problem until I tried the custom libfreetype. Are you using Amazon's own libfreetype?

Right now I'm manually adding my 400+ books to collections on my PW as it appears that there's no workable Collections plugin for the Touch/PW. To be honest, trying to figure out exactly what hacks I would need for the PW has been very confusing to this non-hacker!

Come on people, get real!

The PW has been shipping for exactly ONE DAY now, and it's limited to the US.

Developers are spread all over the world - at least, I know for sure that NiLuJe and myself are in Europe, so we won't get a Paperwhite anytime soon (I expect to get mine in about a month from now, thanks to a friend in the US who ordered it and will ship it to me).

We can't develop anything for a device that we don't have.

PS: Yes, we will try to adapt the existing tools/patches to the PW. JBPatch, Collections Manager, and others, will (most probably) run on the Paperwhite. Once I actually get my hands on a PW, I'll tell you more.
