Hi James,

I agree and disagree! It depends what calls and ereader device.
Are the higher end Kindles ereaders or what?

Is a ereader allowed to have color, etc.
Do not bother to comment,just want to show there are some question
that need to be answered first. Then we can better decide what we want to
support.

As far as your experience with the click trough method all I can say is this
discussion of supported features in ereaders or the lack thereof and what PG is to support
does  not get us anywhere. Are we supporting EPUB3, yet!? Or just a subset.
Do the ereaders support EPUB fully, do they have, too?!

Just mentioning this, not interested in the ground war or flame wars!
Heh, where is BB? ;))
