Storage card-related glitches bug Dell Axim and Mobipocket
Storage cards have been on the minds of plenty of PDA users lately, especially owners of the Dell Axim. They may want to check out some information from San Disk. To keep up with this and other issues, why not subscribe to the Axim X5 list?
Meanwhile Mobipocket acknowledges that some people with Version 4.8 may have problems transferring information from their PCs directly to the storages card on their PDAs. No hassles. Just go to My Software within the My Mobipocket section of the Mobipocket site and download a newer version of 4.8. Worked fine for me.
A few more thoughts on Mobipocket: While I remain gung ho on a Universal Consumer Format, I continue to think that Mobipocket is the best of the proprietary-format readers I’ve used. Delighted to hear from Steve Potash of Overdrive that his company is still keen on the format and will indeed be offering it more frequently in both the retail and library markets.
Now–if only Mobipocket will work with a UCF. I remain impressed by the usability of the interface and the abundance of useful features. Microsoft and Adobe and Palm are has-beens compared to this one. Psst! Spread the word. Perhaps the market will eventually reward Mobipocket for putting out a superior product.
