It's the original Peanutpress reader, then Palm Reader, then eReader. There
are both PPC and Palm versions, and both are great on their platform.
eReader uses one of te best DRM solutions out there, that limits you as

Head to http://www.ereader.com for a wide choice in commercial books. Next
to that, also free books should be easy to find for this format.

Thought so too. And MS Reader didn't help. But with eReader I'm a happy
ebook reader. Just wish they'd release a MS Smartphone version.
