New Fonts in iOS 5.0 - and Some Missing

Apple iOS 5.0 was released few days ago and installation was rather hard. It's still not complete, since I had 500+ apps and restore from iOS 4.3.5 backup was about a total failure. Enough of that, waiting for iOS 5.1 release rather soon.

Let's look at fonts. Yes, with pictures!

iOS 5.0 was a huge update in many ways and one of them is built-in font selection. For the first time ever, iPhone and iPad have exactly the same fonts!

iPad lost two font families (Heiti J, Heiti K), got two new families (Euphemia UCAS, Marion) and 13 additions to already existing font families.

The following list has been created with the help of FontType application, created by yours truly! (available on App Store)
