Did that for 2 nights, then went back to using the palm. My palm is still in exceptional good condition, even though it's close to 6 years old. The batterylife is the same as it was, when new.

Now, when I download books from Smashwords I download both formats.

Does the Ipod Touch have a fairly good screen (sizewise)?
Hi Lene

My Palm LifeDrive is still in excellent condition, too.

I believe the iPod Touch has a good-sized screen -- 3.5" according to the Apple site, so only marginally smaller than the LifeDrive 3.8" screen (I think the Zire 72 is under 3"). Whatever reader I buy, a back light is a prerequisite.

Cheers
Vicki
