I have a copy of the Douglas Adams Hitchhikers guide to the galaxie in eBook format. email me at this address - whyohwhyamistill(at)yahoo.com - if you are interested and I'll email it to you. Not many people are comfortable using share networks, but that is where I get most of my eBooks. If I had to pay, I'd use www.waterstones.co.uk.

I am not sure if they have HGttG, but my favorite free ebook site is www.blackmask.com.

It never fails to have something intersting, and as the name suggests it has an incredible collection of the old pulp classics...The Shadow, Doc Savage, The Avenger, etc.

Check it out....if ya know what's good for ya, buster.

I have always been a big fan of Memoware.com for free ebooks in the public domain. To purchase ebooks I prefer to use Fictionwise.com.

I like Fictionwise, too! I have been a member for just over a year now and really like the site.

Here's more

Check www.baen.com for freebie sci-fi books.
Another good one is www.fictionwise.com. They have freebies, regular discounts, multiple formats, multiple categories, and more.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Douglas Adams

eReader is by far the best way to read books on the Pocket PC.

Thanks for the link cageyjames. I was actually looking for the free version if there is one for PPC. I had a free download on Palm which was in five files. I and read it using iSol free on my Palm iiixe.
