Readable? Depends on your monitor, screen mode, your eyes, the point size, the font and the level magnification. It's just as readable as any other Amiga graphics-based WP, all of which require a screen mode with "square" pixels to look properly WYSIWYG. What is "good" TrueType support? It says it loads TrueType fonts. It has loaded the few I have on my hard disk. I expect, like with all font formats, there will be some fonts that won't load. Fast? What, on to the screen? No faster than CG or Type 1 really. If you mean at printing, no, it isn't any faster than before, but that's primarily because of the way the Amiga's printing system works. Personally, I cannot stand all the distractions of graphics-based word processors. I bash out my words in Protext (a very, very fast text-based WP) and, if I need to, make it look pretty in one desktop publisher or another, any of which has a few million more features than any graphics-based WP.
