Good luck

I'm sure there are loads of other old PalmOS resources lying around on the web if you do a search.
Thanks for the links. I've browsed around and it seems the underlying language is C.

Yes, of course, a fun project if there is time, and the results would be good. And we also know, of course, that there is calibre. But it would be nice not to keep converting to be able to read on a particular device. It's also insurance for when the mobi format completely disappears from the face of the earth. I actually prefer reading on my Sony Clie than on my iPod Touch.

In any case creating an app to read ePub on PalmOS shouldn't be that hard for someone experienced with PalmOS. After all, ePub is basically html and, surely, there is already an app which renders html on PalmOS. It would just require some tweaking to get it to read ePub.
