You can load Palm OS emulator on 770 and open your Palm books there.

For DRM-free e-books FBReader is best, but for DRM-laden e-books the Palm emulator is your only option (other than breaking the DRM, e.g. of a LIT e-book). I tested MobiPocket reader, and my only complaint was that the 320x480 resolution only uses 40% of the screen. See Palm Garnet VM now available for Nokia N770, N800, N810. There are probably bible-specific applications for Palm, which should also work.

Were you able to get a Palm ebook reader to open a book stored on a card? Not seeing the card seems to be a problem for GVM users.

I did not do much more than confirm it worked, and I did have problems opening books on the card - see MobiPocket Reader eBooks directory? I "installed" each e-book I wanted to read, which I assume copied it to the Palm "internal" storage.

Likely. AFAIK, the GVM works, but can't see expansion cards, and can't run applications that use external libraries. (Like Mathlib, which most Palm OS calculators use.)

Both of those are deal breakers for me.
