Also, on Retina displays, OS X browsers automatically double pixel dimensions. By default, something declared as 16px is actually rendered as 32px (but sharper).

What broken mobile web browser are you using that can't scale and zoom a fixed-width page properly?

Looks like it's an issue with the particular version of Proxima Nova that's being @font-face embedded. I don't notice those problems with the version of Proxima Nova served up from TypeKit.

You might want to consider adding "Add to Readmill" buttons to the post-checkout page: https://readmill.com/developers/send-to-readmill (and no, I'm not affiliated with them, I just think they've built a great platform)

you should check out Readmill: http://readmill.com It's quickly become my favorite book-reading app on the iPad, and their webapp is pretty awesome too. You can load any unprotected EPUB.
