Personally if I have to fight something into loading, then take 3 hours 
to tweak it so it shows up in a readable form on the pda, sod it. I will 
go for something that works out of the box with no headaches. Lazy? Yup. 
Life is too damn short and painful for me as it is to screw around with 
something for hours just to read a stupid book on my pda. I load books 
on a chip, shove it into the treo, and start reading. I dont even have 
to synch the pda, i shove the chip into the slot on my laptop and drag 
the books over and drop them in.
