The readability of the Nokia 770, with 225 pixels per inch, is incredible. Tiny, tiny type is really legible. I'm reading sizes far smaller than I anticipated.

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?

There are some bugs in the ported Viewer right now. I've sent this information to Nils Faerber, of
Kernel Concepts, who did the port of Bill Janssen's GTK+ Viewer, to see what he makes of it. I want to raise the issue here, however, in case it's a Plucker-preparation issue and not a programming issue.
Right now I'm only able to use Plucker Desktop and Sunrise to create pdb files. I don't know the reason, but about half the pdb's I make with Plucker Desktop fail to display anything more than one screen's material in the 770's Viewer. So these reported results are with files made using Sunrise (and externally supplied files, as noted).
I'll post my Python issue/problem in a separate thread, so as to keep discussion close to the thread title. And then maybe it'll be easier to get some of it into the Plucker Documentation wiki.
Given that many Plucker pdb files start as single large files, I figured it wasn't a problem that occurs with the PDA Viewers.

Update: After posting a new thread,
Plucker and Pythons, plural, it only now dawns on me that some of my problems might be related to the version of Python I currently have installed (and can't upgrade).
