Hi Brett,

I just ran it on another Ubuntu box and after editing the config. info at the top of the script and using "sudo cpan" to install the necessary modules (Net::OpenSSH, Term::ProgressBar, XML::Simple etc.) it ran and returned 0 books. I then ran "ssh -l root <iphone ip address or hostname>" from the command line, logged in, exited, ran the script again and it then worked fine.

Give that a whirl and report back.

P.S. I have no interest in running it on windows and am too busy right now but it shouldn't be hard for a motivated windows user to modify it to work under cygwin

P.P.S. If you manually download all the books to a directory on your windows PC then comment out lines 123 to 143 it will do everything except get the books off your iphone.
