Reader that Can read Palm Doc Format?

Is there a program out there that can read the Palm Doc format if I load a .pdb file onto my Pocket PC? I have alot of files currently stored in that format.

As long as they are not encrypted, uBook (www.gowerpoint.com) can read them.

Try this one ( www.isilo.com/download/index.htm ) . This is the one I used when I had my Palm IIIxe.

Mobipocket Reader is free and can read Pdb files as well as Mobipocket's Prc format. They also have a pretty extensive eBook store as well. But if you are talking about protected eBooks in PDB format, eReader Pro is the only one I know of that can open them.

www.mobipocket.com
www.ereader.com

Iuse both but prefer eReader pro. Just a nicer interface to me.

I use both of these, as well as MS Reader (for books that are only in that format). I prefer MobiPocket, but eReader Pro has some very nice features as well.

The best prc/pdb reader for pocketpc

The best must be:

Haali Reader - a book reader for Windows CE
http://haali.cs.msu.ru/pocketpc/index.html.en

It's free and once you use it, you will never use other readers!

It supports VGA mode as well!

Unfortunately you WILL use other readers if you have encrypted .LIT files or. PDB files you want to read since MS Reader and eReader respectively are the only ones who can read those type files.
