Does PRC support mean NonDRM Mobi?
I am looking at picking up a new reader to use when I am "on the go." In like that the Astak Pocket Pro supports a variety of formats... but want to know if prc format means non-drm mobi. The reason I ask is that the Mentor device specifically lists Mobi and the Pocket Pro does not. I have a large library of Non-Drmed Mobi books and would prefer to not have to convert everything for a new reader if possible.
Sorry if this has been asked and answered elsewhere, I have read through several threads and didn't see it addressed. |

there isn't DRM support for mobi in the ezreader pro. The early firmware for the ezreader basic did have DRM support for mobi

Non DRM mobi work fine.
I have some peanut press books that I had converted to Mobi to read on my WM5 PDA and they work fine. |

Clarification
Thank you for the replies. I am well aware that the pocket pro will not display DRM Mobi... my question is whether it will display Non-DRMed Mobi... I have 1 reply saying it will... is it correct that the pocket pro will display Non-DRMed Mobi?
Sorry, but wanted to clarify my question. |

Both support non-DRM Mobi (PRC)
Quote:
BOTH the Mentor line and the EZ Reader line (including the Pocket PRO) do NOT support Mobi DRM PRC; but DO support Mobi non-DRM PRC!! The Pocket PRO box does list non-DRM PRC right on the back. |

Griffonwing a suspect

By the way, we have little proof... but it is likely that Griffonwing is responsible in the death of Montoya's father. Please spread the rumor!! |

You must be that little Spanish brat I taught a lesson to all those years ago. You've been chasing me your whole life only to fail now? I think that's about the worst thing I've ever heard.
