Hello everyone!!
Hello everyone!! I'm new to MobileRead. I'm a physician in Louisiana, USA. I have been using mobipocket for years now. I have several medical books which I refer to alot while on rounds and caring for patients. My palm TX was stolen recently, so now all I have is my I Phone. I have been struggling with 5 (.prc mobipocket) books these past few days. I have installed every reader to my iphone. I recently found out that the reason the books will not open is due to "DRM". I have tried everything mentioned on the internet to remove this. I'm not very good with computer programming and things of this sort, and have failed at removing this "DRM" thing. I cannot understand why they just won't release a mobipocket reader for the i phone, especially for medical books. I put people first every day in my line of work. Why can't they?? If there is anyone out there who can help me, words could not express my gratitude! I have all of the books stored in a file which I could email to get fixed. My email address is jevinb@centurytel.net. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You!!

Hello and welcome to the site. I am not very good at the whole DRM thing, but I feel your pain. I have a few protected books that I am upset about buying from sony with so many restrictions.

Hi & welcome to MR. Unfortunately I can't help you with the DRM thing as I a) don't really understand it yet and b) am not that good either. I am sure though someone will give you a helping hand here.
