Publisher's description of Plucker

From Plucker Team: Plucker is an offline Web and e-book viewer for Palm OS. It comes with a Windows conduit that lets you decide exactly what part of the Web you want to view on your PDA. Plucker includes programs that let you specify exactly what part of the World Wide Web you'd like to download onto your PDA (as long as they're in standard HTML or text format); these Web pages are then processed, compressed, and transferred to the PDA for viewing by the Plucker viewer. Plucker supports many features, including clickable images (pan and zoom), italic, narrow, and high-res fonts, multiple concurrent databases, configurable display parameters and stylus options (gestures and hardware button navigation), ZLib and DOC compression, Perl and Python conduits and parsers, a Windows fully-integrated installer, and a whole lot more. The package includes the viewer, the distiller, documentation, and a full GUI to configure your content.

  Works great. Lots of free ebooks, too.

  Pros: Installs perfectly. Lots of options but easy to use. Plenty of free ebooks at Gutenberg project. I tried ereader and cspotrun. I much prefer Plucker.

  Simply Incredible!

  Pros: Don't get this software, but instead go the the developer's website and get the Plucker Desktop program. It'll install this one for you and along with the rest. It's very userfriendly and I'd wholey recommend it.

  Cons: No problems with the viewer, but the desktop suite that will get the content acctually onto your handheld has a couple. Would be nice if it could update a channel (website) to the handheld without redownloading it. If it can, I haven't found a way. Also, the box that shows progress is very unresponsive and always feels like it's being run on a computer way to slow; my computer is far from slow.
