Re: (BP) Working through the maze of PDA formats for etexts...

Thanks for the info, Bill.  I tried it but wasn't impressed:  too buggy and 
difficult to use for my taste.  I'll keep playing around with it though.

I'm looking for something that will allow downloadable, preformatted pda 
type docs to read well on a pda, not spider a site.  I think my site is 
just too deep for this to work well.  It seems to ignore most of the 
formatting at my site and doesn't return and words, just the main header 
table on  the index page.
