Sigh... OOoFBTools is kind of hard to use.. mainly because all the instructions are in Russian . I do have a friend who knows Russian. I also found an html2fb2.pl script that shows some promise, but it seems to have problems with special characters (Then again, firefox also seems to have problems with them when I try to save an HTML book to txt). I am looking at the script to see if I can figure it out. Unfortunately, the script doesn't have a lot in the way of comments to help a guy out.

Another solution (should I settle on the Jetbook) is to use my browser to save html books as pdfs. Since I would be saving them on a size designed specifically for the screen, it ought to work just fine.

PilotBob, I read your review of the Jetbook... you mention that the arrow keys are used for scrolling in PDF mode; I assume the page turn buttons still go to the next page?
