Today in the Seattle Times, I read an article that previews a software package that will allow creating a PDF from the files obtained with your digital camera. The neat and unusual feature of this software is that it will not require the book be pressed flat. It will allow you to just open a book on a table, take the photo and the software will "press it flat" so to speak and create a PDF or other format file.
Available for 14 free trial and fairly inexpensive at USD$ 49 from:

For me, this seems like a great deal so I can convert some books I own to Sony Reader format for private use.
Just thought you might be interested.
