Impressive screenshots, Roger!

What's especially nice about the 770 display is that it is native widescreen. Why is that so important? Obviously reading a book in widescreen format is more natural as it better resembles the format of a real paper book. Although I rotate the screen of my Dell Axim 90 degrees to widescreen mode, it doesn't look very good because of the physical properties of an LCD. The fonts look blurred and unfocused, and makes my head dizzy after only a few minutes.

Sounds to me like the Plucker port for the Nokia is still buggy. I have never heard of any page limits for Palm or Pocket PC users. Have you tried converting a book with Sunrise?
