ebooks on wizard?

[Guest Spott]

hi, i just decided to get rid of my ancient palm device and ancient mobile and got a mda vario instead. now, i read a lot of ebooks and have spent the past 8 hrs trying to get an ebook reader onto this thing (i am about ready to smash it aainst the nearest wall) i got microsoft reader which says on one site it works with wm5 and on another that it doesn't. it installed but i can't activate and/or use it. the error i get is that my os is so old it does not require activation... does anyone know how to get this to work or a good ereader that doesn't require all this fuffing about? or would i be better off just to take this thing back for a refund? thank you for your help...

What type of ebook? .lit? Tomeraider? .pdb?

I use haali reader for .pdb and .txt and a lit convertor to convert lit's to text.

Mobipocket reader too from time to time and clearvue for .pdf.

mainly .pdb files i looked up haali but it doesn't meantion copatability with wm5... does it work?

[Guest Emad]

Works fine, have read dozens of books with it. Fab program.

anyone know of a cbr reader?

or a convertor that will allow it to be read on pda?

[Guest Emad]

cbrs are just winrar files with .jpegs inside. Extract and view with your image viewer of choice.

so they are ... thanks very much

would it be possible to create an ebook out of the images? idl ike to be able to flip through pages like an ebook ... i'm lazy like that

just chuck em in a directory and use a good image viewer. Same thing, less hassle.
