Unfortunately, there is the friction of being a Mac user. No Mobipocket, no Microsoft Reader, no Sony Connect.

And then there is the friction of the reading devices. I bought a number of Palm Reader books in the early 2000s. Now I use the Sony Reader instead of the Palm for portable reading. And that entails rebuying the books assuming that they're even available. And I don't want to do that.
Palm eBook files can be read by Book Designer as well as by OpenOffice. Either one can output text or html files. Then you can use html2lrf to convert to Sony Reader files (LRF) or you can just use the text files on the Reader. Good luck.
