Steve Jordan's site still working:
http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6544
and Many books? Too bad e-asia books are all in Microsoft reader format(via university of Oregon e-book) edit:Jan 2008 I noticed that University of Oregon e-book now offers books in pdf and mobipocket format(not all, but a few are in this format) This library has books on China, Japan and Korea (maybe later with other asian countries)
I prefer mobipocket to e-reader since the free version works better than the free version of e-reader. Also the mobipocket desktop can convert pdf files, but hey when people pay they will tend to not switch e-readers.

Hmm Palm EBooks link only shows three books for palm.
Well copyright battles have shut down a MP3 site in Russia, maybe it might close the ebook web site in Russia too? Funny thing is the ebook format after I download it is put into mobipocket format!(mobipocket and google and french connection?)

Some folks swear by palmfiction e-book reader(from Russia?) I've tried it and it is interesting. I guess the real readers here at 1src are not an adventureous group, they tend to settle on e-readers that work(yeah why change?) But some newbie might want to cut the experimenting to the professionals and take their recommendations.

Stump your friends with trivopaedia:
http://3lib.ukonline.co.uk/trivopaedia.htm
In ISilo, mobipocket , plucker and even memo format for free.
I don't know if it works with IPod but it claims it can do it too!

I prefer mobipocket to e-reader since the free version works better than the free version of e-reader. Also the mobipocket desktop can convert pdf files, but hey when people pay they will tend to not switch e-readers.

PalmFiction is not only FREE, it can Read documents in following formats: PalmDoc, zTXT, RTF, MS Word 2.x, 6.0/95, 2000-2003, simple text, text with HTML tags (for remove tags only), TCR (full unpacking). In all listed formats of documents displays only text (without, hyperlinks, images..) Features: Support for ZIP and GZ, etc.

It's a little tough to figure out which parts to install, but once you do, you'll have a wealth of reading on your palm. My treo current has over 300 books on it, in several formats.

I've read all the harry potters and a bunch of ann macafree...

The home page is here: http://palmfiction.sourceforge.net/ (Russian)

And downloads are here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/palmfiction/

Grab the current 0.14t release.

You want the main PalmFiction PRC, pfUH_EN.PRC, pfUI_EN.PRC, and at least one of the pfDefaultTheme PRCs. You can optionally install one of the included font files, but it works fine with the default Palm fonts.

I have over 3,000, mostly in Plucker format, but with eReader, Mobipocket, PDF, plain text, and RTF in the mix as well.

Reading the Potter is a neat trick, since they've never been issued in legitimate ebook editions...

FYI: Right now to read free eBooks, I use a TRGpro running Palm OS 3.5.3 and it serves me very well for eBooks. I can cut and paste text into a text file on my PC and can either read that directly on my PC or an old HP200LX which uses AA batteries for days without replacement, or can use Aportis to convert to a .pdb file that I can read on my trusty old TRGpro which is a clone of the old Palm IIIx but with a CF card on the back which is accessible directly from the OS so I can have direct access to hundreds of novels. It uses AAA batteries so I can read for many hours on a set, or I can also use rechargeable AAAs if I prefer.

The CF also backs up the unit so I haven't synched it since 2001. (So nothing can be inadvertently lost in case the synch setting is wrong.) This was and is a brilliant combination of technologies but it had to be abandoned by the TRGpro makers (HandEra) because Palm was going to charge them too much for the newer OS. I refuse to be a slave to rechargeable units because what do you do when the rechargeable battery fails? However I sure would like to get a new eBook such as Sony offers, if they had a version that, say, took C batteries so it would run a long time no matter where I went, and wouldn't have to be recharged. A whole library always available and I think it also shows Jpegs and maybe plays MP3 files for people who like audio books.

Higuys

It seems to me that after working with this list to find a few ebooks I've wanted to read lately, that getting them for Palm is rare, or otherwise much more expensive than just buying a printed book.

BTW-

Do you think it might be possible to create a page here with some kind of list or chart of all the websites discussed? Things likethe basre URL, free/$$$ most common format, categories (scifi/novels/romance/classics/etc.)

thx
