Need Mobipocket prc files

I'm a new member so bear with me.

I need three Mobipocket files:

mobireader.prc

mathlib.prc

bluepalm.pdb

If anyone knows where I can download these files or perhaps email them to me it will be much appreciated as I can't download any books to my Palm reader without them.

Thanks,

Rus

Have you tried Google? Simple searches of each file brings up numerous hits, some of which seem legal and real.

I have tried everything and all refers to the Mobipocket web site that is down.

I need someone that has saved these files to attach them to an email to me.

Sorry.
I only ever used the Windows versions: HPC, PPC, desktop...
Might the Internet Archive have it?
Or maybe USENET or IRC...
There's groups for the old 8-bit so there might be PalmOS groups.

I found an old backup from my Handspring Visor which had the mathlib.prc file. I also had a palm_reader.prc file if that will help. Have no idea about the bluepalm.pdb file.

Thanks. I found the mathlib.prc file but I'll try installing the palm reader.

There is a download to computer link that worked for me. It will download a zipped file that contains all 3 files you are asking for.

I tried it but found no files; only unwanted services. Could you please send a message and attach the three files like the other respondent did?

Thanks.

For whatever reason I can't load .mobi files on my Palm (as in old) phone. The .mobi ebooks have to be loaded on a memory card first.

I never used to have this problem before. I could always load the books on my Kyocera Palm phone's main memory.

I'm going to pick up a cheap micro card and see if they will load and read from it.

... because you didn't have ".mobi" files. Palm compatible Mobipocket files always had/have the ".prc" extension. The Palm OS only accepts .prc (Palm ResourCe) and .pdb (Palm DataBase) extensions on the main OS partition. The later versions of the Palm OS allowed other extensions but only on the expansion card.
