Thanks for the reply, but this trick only works with unencrypted
ebooks. Palm Digital Media books are encrypted and will, using your
method, only show up as gibberish.
Unfortunately, the company only makes readers for PalmOS, Windows, Mac
and PPC. Even UNIX/Linux isn't supported, so the chances of a Newton
port of their reader are, to say the least, slim.
And then they wonder why people keep kracking software and encryption
schemes...
