Additional programs that are used to read Ebooks and doc file are;

Isolo (There is a free version of the reader),

Tomeraider is for reading .tr files (This is not free, but there is a demo version.) If you download a .tr file, you must convert it first using the utility that comes with Tomeraider.

Cspot run - A good basic reader.

The Adobe Acrobat reader is great, but it cannot be used to read acrobat Ebooks. Only normal PDF files.

Other utilities that I cannot live without include;

Wordsmith (Mentioned above)

Launcher III (A replacement for the standard launcher. It is very powerful and supports Springboard memory cards)

Klondike Solitaire, Zap 2016, Galax, and many other great color games for the occasional distraction.

All of the above can be downloaded from Palmgear. Try the free demos for a while to see if you like the program, but remember to purchase the software if you really like it.
