I don't currently use Plucker, but I'd like to give it a try again. I have searched the forums, but I haven't been able to find any posts about the issue that made me stop using it, the last time I tried it out.

The last time I tried Plucker, it would always show the last line of text from the previous "page", when you went to the next page. While I can understand that this might be desirable behavior for some people, it's not for me.

Is there anyway around this in the default Palm Plucker Reader? Is there a hacked / user modified version of the Plucker reader for Palm OS devices out there that does this?

I really like the idea of the Plucker format, and being able to pull documents from the web and read them, but I'd rather not use it, than to see lines of text that I've already read, every time I page down.

Perhaps I'm just trying to use Plucker for something it's not (an ebook reader, as opposed to offline web browser). Any suggestions or work arounds?
