Yea .. the text occasionally missed a letter here and there but it’s still understandable.

This worked perfectly.
I’ve got a 1500 page book in my 8120 now.
It’s much lighter this way. :)

Then under “EBooks” import all your EBooks into your Desktop reader and then just connect your blackberry. The desktop application should recognize your blackberry is connected and ask you to log in etc. etc. Then if you don’t have it set to “auto-synch” then you have to manually send them to your blackberry by clicking “Send” at the top from the “EBooks” screen on your desktop application.

I am using Windows XP with a BB Curve and it works great. Only downfall is the conversion process isn’t perfected so the EBook doesn’t look identical to the original book but lets not get picky now.

Hope this helps.
