Down loaded Ms reader for desktop and Axim, bough 2 books just to find out there super protected. Cant copy e-book’s to my Axim. Tried to surf out to website (amazon.com) and redownload them from my Axim and Amazon was nice enough to tell I cant do that for the books I "BOUGHT" because they were already downloaded. If you want to read e-books on your Axim go to www.peanutpress.com and get the Palm reader for the PPC, and buy your books there I have all my PBD books on my PC and Axim I can even copy them to other HD’s computer ect to have a backup!
The DMCA is a very very very BAD THING!

It sounds like you had the same problem I did. However I had not downloaded the pc version. After buying books through Amazon it forced my to download the PC version of reader and install that. Afterwhich the download automatically placed in my pc version.
I was however able to just drag copy the files from the My Books directory into my Axim via the windows front end. I dont see to be having any problems reading on my Pocket PC.
Did you by chance open the book on the PC for reading befor trying to copy? Not sure if that woudl 'lock' the files to just your pc or not.
My understanding from Microsoft Reader site is everything is locked to your id and you can have 8 machines all activated with the same id. Not sure if that means the eBook can be on all 8 also though.
Just my 2 cents.
