I managed to resurrect my old Dell Axim (had to dismantle it and tape the touchscreen cable--why it worked I don't know, but I'm glad it did!) and so went looking for an ePub reader to compliment the one I use on my eeepc. I found Freda and after figuring out I needed an updated ActiveSync, an updated mobile dot net, etc was happily reading some eBooks. Thank you for this application! At least there is one--all the poor suckers with Garnet Palm devices have nothing at all...(I can say this, as until I resurrected the Axim my main eBook device was a Zire 72s.)

Any way, I am having some issues with eBooks made by the fanfiction site "Twisting the Hellmouth" is there some way someone could test this out and either clarify what I'm doing wrong or chime in and report that this is indeed an issue? To test it out you just have to find a story and select "Whole Story" and choose the ePub option, which will cause the site to create an ePub version of the story sans pictures. Thanks again for this wonderful program...

PS: AFAIK I am running the latest version of the program for Windows Mobile 2003. I installed via cab since the MSI installer detects the lack of dot net 2.x and refuses to proceed despite having dot net 3.5.x installed.
