Trouble with umlauts
Would any of you gracious people here know whether there is any way for me to actually read my DRM-d .epub files with an actual e-reader instead of a PC/laptop? The problem being that they require the credit card number and the name on card to unlock, but my name happens to contain a few pesky non-English characters - an "a" with umlauts (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%84).
At the moment I have an old e-reader (eSlick by Foxit, discontinued model) which never got to the software upgrade that would've included non-standard charaters. I will be buying a new e-reader soon and am looking at different ones (I'd prefer e-ink, and that it'd read .epub, .pdf, .txt, preferably .doc and .mobi as well, good battery life is a must, don't really care about WiFi).
So, to clarify the question - do you know of any e-readers that support that pesky "รค" character (for example, would Kobo Touch allow me to read my DRM-d .epubs as well as non-DRM-d ones)? Also, I would very much welcome any suggestions and comments on the topic of which e-ink reader to buy (keeping in mind that I'm in Estonia, that is European Union re: availability issues and I would really like to exhaust all other options before even looking at Kindles:) For example, a few readily available readers I've found at the moment are Sony PRS-T1, Kobo Touch, Iriver Story HD, B&N Nook.)
Thank you!
