No.
I use a Palm OS PDA as an ebook reader. My primary reader applications is a free, open source offline HTML viewer called Plucker.
Plucker is intended to "pluck" websites with the desktop component, and sync them to the PDA for offline viewing. I use it to create Plucker formatted copies of books in HTML format stored locally.
I have about 2,600 volumes in Plucker format on an SD card in my PDA. I don't use Plucker to read websites offline, but if I did, I wouldn't think they had magically become books like the rest of the stuff I have in Plucker.
