Does anyone know if I will be able to transfer books to the Nokia if I have Windows Vista? 
I guess I should have thought of that before I paid for it..... |
I guess it should work; anyway if worst comes to worst and you do not want to take the mmc card out (the locking mechanism is fragile), you can always upload your ebooks to some e-mail account like gmail and then connect with the 770 and download them directly. Similarly about Fbreader, you can update it wirelessly.
And if you buy drm free e-books (or get them from Gutenberg and the like) you also can download them directly, zipped too if you so prefer since Fbreader reads from zip archives
For my Fictionwise multiformat and Baen purchases, I always download the prc (zipped prc) directly to the 770, I put it on my PC only for archival purposes and if I want it transfered to the iTouch or the Sony
