Peanut Press was working on a Newton version of their book reader (they
are all Newton fans) but I wrote them again recently about it and they
told me they'd discontinued work on it.

The Peanut Press bookmaker stuff may be a subset of HTML....but the files
themselves almost certainly are not, at least for the books they SELL as
they require you to type in a code to unlock it, and i'm sure it's all
encrypted and such.
