eReader is an application used to read eReader (or files with the extension .pdb) eBooks on your Palm OS, Windows, or Mac. Without eReader, you will not be able to read eReader eBooks, and other eBook Readers. Our eBooks are encrypted to protect the authors' work. In addition, the eReader can display styled text (italicized, underlined, etc.) and formatting as well as perform functions not found on other eBook readers. There is no charge to download and use eReader.
We never sell or distribute any personal information about our customers or visitors. We feel very strongly about privacy issues. Your personal information is stored securely and used for purchasing purposes only.

The eReader is an application used to read palm eBook Store eBooks on your Palm OS, Windows, or Mac. Without the eReader, you will not be able to read palm eBook Store eBooks, and other eBook Readers will not work with palm eBook Store eBooks. palm eBook Store eBooks are encrypted to protect the authors' work. In addition, the eReader can display styled text (italicized, underlined, etc.) and formatting as well as perform functions not found on other eBook readers. There is no charge to download and use the eReader. For more information about the eReader, go to Using the eReader.
The eReader can read doc files. A doc file is a type of handheld file that ends in either .pdb or .prc. These text files have been specifically packaged for use on a handheld. Doc format is pretty much a standard for handheld documents, and the latest version of the eReader can view them.
Yes, as long as you have enough memory on your handheld to hold all your eBooks in the eReader. What can reduce the speed and performance of the eReader?
We've had a few reports of eReader being slow on some machines. In those cases, the slowness was due to the presence of certain HackMaster software. The most common of these was "TealEcho" which, like a lot of similar software, is always running in the background and can seriously degrade the performance of the entire machine. Removing this should dramatically speed up eReader.
Older versions of the Reader may experience difficulty with memory allocation in some circumstances, usually on older hardware. One workaround is to perform a reset in order to defragment the dynamic memory heap. Another is to disable any hacks that may be using dynamic memory. Note that this dynamic memory is not the same as that used to store applications, books and other data, so you may have a lot of "free memory" showing in the Launcher but still encounter memory problems when trying to run the Reader.
Yes, as long as you keep a copy on your desktop machine, you can reload it on your handheld as often as you wish. When you reload it, you will need to enter your user name and unlock code. If you lose or accidentally delete your copy, you can re-download it from Your Account. For the first time, it's now possible to build up your own library of your favorite books that won't ever age or deteriorate!

The eReader and eReader Pro for Palm OS support expansion cards that use the VFS Manager. This includes SD/MMC cards on Palm handhelds, MemoryStick cards on Sony handhelds, and both SD/MMC and CompactFlash cards on the Handera 330.
Books should be installed in the /PALM/Books or /PALM/Launcher directories on expansion cards.
You can use the eReader to copy books from main memory to the Books directory; select the "Copy" item from the "Book" menu in the Reader. Once the book has been copied to the card you can delete it from main memory.
You can install books directly in the Launcher directory during HotSync® using recent versions of the Palm Desktop software. In the Install tool click on the "Set Destination" button and set the destination to the card.
You can also install books directly on the card using a card reader attached to your desktop computer. Make sure to copy the books to the /PALM/Books directory.
We require that eReader Pro must be purchased for each platform that is used on. We did this to defray the cost of the Reader on each individual platform. For example, instead of charging $80 for an eReader Pro that runs on several platforms, we decided to charge $9.95 for each copy since most people only want to use the Reader on one platform.

Installing the fonts and dictionary for your new eReader Pro is as easy as installing a book. In fact, installing a dictionary is exactly like installing a book and installing fonts just adds a few extra steps to the process.
The Agfa Monotype Font Pack for eReader Pro is downloaded as a standard Zip file. Make sure that you note which directory you save the Zip file to and then follow these simple instructions:
Important Note: For most users, the 9 and 12 point sizes are sufficient for normal usage. You may want to install the 18 point size if you use the Large system font frequently. Clie and HandEra users will probably want to install the 18 and the 24 point fonts instead of the smaller sizes. Because of the increased resolution of these devices, the 18 point fonts will produce the same results that a 9 point font will on other handhelds and the 24 point fonts will be equal to a 12 point font.
- Unzip the file using your WinZip application (Windows) or StuffIt Expander (Mac).
- Open the Palm Desktop application. On the left-hand side of the application window you will see "Install." Click on "Install."

A mouse that supports universal scrolling can interfere with page turning when using the mousewheel. We suggest one of the following:
- Toggle the view to open the book in its own window, mousewheel page turning will then work properly.
- As an alternative to the mousewheel, you can enable page turning using mouseclicks within the page. To enable this feature, please see the reader preferences (shortcut key ctrl+G).
- Disable universal scrolling on your mouse for eReader. To do this go to the Start Menu->ControlPanel->Mouse->Wheel. To the right of "Enable Universal Scrolling", click on the "Exceptions..." button and select "Add". You will be prompted for an application name and path. Simply enter "eReader" and provide the path to the directory eReader was installed on your desktop.
We require that eReader Pro must be purchased for each platform that is used on. We did this to defray the cost of the Reader on each individual platform.

At this point, you have two options.
The first is to buy more books with your new credit card. Once you have made a purchase with a new credit card, you can log in to your account and reset the unlock code on your previous purchases to be the new credit card, then download the books again. In this case, a new purchase is required to verify the new credit card number.
Your second choice, if you do not wish to purchase additional books at this time, is to reply to this message with a phone number and time of day when it will be convenient for us to call you and provide you with the old number over the phone.

This error relates to a bug with the Palm install/hotsync software. If the path or directory of the file you are trying to install is too long the install software will not be able to find the file. The solution is to unzip or move the files directly to your desktop or into a folder with a shorter path such as c:\temp. This will keep the path length smaller, and allow the Palm Install software to "see" the files. You may also want to download and install the latest Palm hotsync software.

Yes, upgrades are available to you free of charge. It's a good idea to upgrade your version since many eBooks will only work on the latest version.
We require that eReader Pro must be purchased for each platform that is used on. We did this to defray the cost of the Reader on each individual platform. For example, instead of charging $80 for an eReader Pro that runs on Palm OS, Mac, and PC, we decided to charge $20 for each copy since most people only want to use the Reader on one platform.
When you use your credit card to purchase from the palm eBook Store, the credit card company automatically converts the charge into US currency.
No, the site is not available yet to be viewed on a wireless handheld. However, we are looking into the possibilities. Stay tuned.
Generally, the publishers do tell us when a book is scheduled to be downpriced. Obviously we try to downprice the books as soon as we can but with over 14,000 titles, some books do slip through the cracks. Plus we need the publisher's permission before we can downprice on the site.
We are currently working to implementing a Coming Soon section to the palm eBook Store. Stay tuned.
We do try our hardest to get these titles to our customers on pub date. In some cases, publishers do not intend the eBook to be released as the same date of as the print version.
