I applaud efforts like this one, because if the fashion of looking at books in their original layout catches on maybe I'll finally be able to buy an ebook with decent typography. The average ebook is appallingly ugly, and poorly proofread to boot. Typographers and publishers have known how to fix this problem for several centuries -- it's striking how nice the typesetting looks in a printed book from 1830 -- but apparently ebook technology is too primitive to assist them, or maybe it's just that nobody has been able to afford to take the time, since there has never been any money in ebooks before. This can be fixed and it should be fixed.
