Need EBook Reader Advice...

I use both eReader and Microsoft Reader, but have really gotten excited about uBook - great ebook reader. I know how to turn my Microsoft Reader books into a format compatible with uBook. Is there anyway to do the same for eReader texts?

TIA...

Ereader should already be compatible. They are both based on the palm document format.

eReader texts use DRM based on the credit card I used to purchase them - as of right now (unless I'm mistaken) they cannot be opened in uBook.

Thanks grapeape - This is disappointing, since I love BUYING the books from eReader, but greatly prefer uBook to the eReader program.

Do a Google search for "Convert Lit" or clit.exe...
