If I'm wrong, best to face it.
Last week I downloaded and installed the new Plucker viewer 1.8 and the desktop converter 1.6. I am not only impressed, I must admit that I find it superior to iSilo, over and above the fact that it is free. Let me cite just three elements, and suggest that all of you here try it out.
1. It has the best font rendition I have yet seen on a PDA screen. I use both Latin and Cyrillic alphabets and the letters are as black as those on a printed page. And there is a font conversion tool.
2. The dictionary lookup is excellent. You can go directly to RoadLingua (which I do not own) or just tap on a word - that puts it in the clipboard - and then open up a dictionary that picks up what's in the clipboard.
3. You can set the scheduling to repeat at set intervals, so that every time you hotsync, Plucker converts (this is equivalent to the AvantGo conduit).
Additionally, I find that images are rendered brighter and more in depth. I highly recommend it. Philippe Radley
