I don't think the 600 support HTML tho. But if it is HTML, you can convert it too something sensible most likely.
Exactly - I unzipped the file, and it comes mostly in separate html files in alphabetical folders.

There are also some jpg files.

The html files could be converted to epub - (though can't the 600 read html?)

but I don't think there is any way to combine the html and the jpgs.


If you simply put ALL the converted html files in to a single collection, you could search through them. I will try this with a few letters at first, to see how the speed works.

-----Is there any way to keep added files OUT of the 'all books' list? If you were to add wikipedia as separate files, you'd basically be forced to only use the 'collections' to find books (or search or author organize) - but this is not a big deal.

------On this note, does anyone know how to put jpgs in collections?

For instance, reading A Game of Thrones / Song of Ice and Fire series, sometimes you'd like to take a look at a map. If you could just go to the collection you have made, and have all the books and maps together, that'd be fantastic.
