I started reading eBooks on a Handspring Visor Deluxe, which is similar to the m130 by has a grey-scale rather than color screen. You have a variety of options for ebook reading. These days, I use a Tapwave Zodiac, which is also a Palm OS device as my main reader.

Most ebooks are conversions from HTML for the Plucker offline HTML viewer, a free, open source product for Palm OS. Among other things, I have the complete Baen Free Library and a boatload of Project Gutenberg titles. I also run eReader, MobiPocket Reader, PalmPDF and PalmFiction, and can handle just about any form of ebook content.

When you get to that point, let me know, and I can provide pointers.

Thanks! So far I only tried MobiPocket Reader and 2 books. A PD classic from here opened well, but the mobi book (Desbarollda, The Waltzing Mouse from pdurant) wouldn't display the beautiful illustrations as the error comes up as "not enough memory. Cannot display the image in full-screen mode." Then it goes to "cannot open".

So, when I have time I will investigate getting an SD card. Would you put the Reader Programs on the same card with the books? I have MobiPocket on the internal memory. (I have no experience with this and usually just do searches and read whatever I can find to get information.. then experiment on my old computers.)
