I used to have a Palm Pilot and had a lot of stuff in the PDB format, luckily I kept the original TXT files and am able to convert them to anything that it supports.
This might help...

Is there multiple formats in the epub file extension too? I anticipate buying a Nook in December and am confused as to whether it will open and read the epub files that I create with Calibre. Anyone know?
There aren't multiple ePub formats, but when B&N starts selling ePub's there will in a sense be two DRM's for ePub. Calibre ePub's have no DRM so they'll load just fine.

More on ePub...
