PalmOS Format Support:
Supported Palm ebook formats currently include Plucker, PalmDoc (Aportis), and many non-DRM (non-encrypted) Mobi files. Most purchased Mobi files including those from mobipocket.com will not work. Anything which required a "PID" or "reader ID" at time of purchase will not work. Notably, purchased Mobi files from Webscription.net and the Baen Free Library DO work fine. Other PDB and PRC file types including iSilo and eReader are NOT supported at this time.
Downloading e-book files:
A WiFi network is required to transfer books between your device and your home computer. Books are downloaded from your own Windows, Mac, or Linux computer using the free ShelfServer application (see www.iphonebookshelf.com), or directly from several online book sites which support the ShelfServer protocol (see website for full details). Note that downloading books from standards websites directly to your iPhone is not supported at this time. A ShelfServer must be used either on your computer or provided specially by the site you're visiting.
Other features:
Reading in Airplane Mode is no problem. No Internet connection is required once books are transferred.
