If it is a format that it understands then opie-reader should be able to manage it (plain text is okay).

Plain text should work, gzipped text isn't recommended because random access doesn't work too well. You could use makedoc, or http://www.timwentford.uklinux.net/ppms.tgz (http://www.timwentford.uklinux.net/ppms.tgz) (source code only, do gcc -o ppms *.c* to compile it) to compress it if you want to save space.

This is the best version for Sharp ROMs ATM:

http://www.timwentford.uklinux.net/opie-reader_0.7e_arm.ipk (http://www.timwentford.uklinux.net/opie-reader_0.7e_arm.ipk)

It has no dependencies (ie *no* need to install libopie etc). You just need that ipk.

If you use MobiPocket or Html a lot then you might want to consider my current development version. Drop me a note at timwentford@hotmail.com if you want that version.

There have been a few reports of the externally linked codecs not working properly on some ROMs. If that happens to you let me know and I'll send you a statically linked version.
