When it comes to e-books I am always more interested in text files, for myself. I know I am probably in the minority, but reading for me is mostly about text. THe reader I use for textfiles, Haali Reader, has options to reformat on the fly (prevents long line, short line - like Gutenberg texts sometimes do), and it can read zipped textfiles, which are smaller than Palm doc's compression. Haali Reader also reads Palm doc's, so everything is still good.

Also, somtimes I use my Game Boy to read text via Game Boy Advance Movie Player - and it only does text files (well, it'll do a few other things, but I mainly use it to read, and that's purely a textfile deal).

Looking forward to reading the book! Thanks to the author for offering it up and thanks for posting the heads up!
