Microsoft Reader Summer 03 Freebies
Microsoft offers free best-selling titles from a wide range of notable authors . . . for FREE! This offer will run from July through November, 2003.
Free books rotate each week. If you don't have a PPC or don't want to use Microsoft Reader, you can try converting the eBook to HTML first with Clit . Tad |

Did you get clit to work on the freebies - I have it working on some old books but I downloaded one of the free ones and it didn't work - it crashed.

You are probably using clit version 1.2a ... version 1.4 is now available at members.lycos.co.uk/hostintheshell/ and it will work with the freebies.

I would send them to you if I could find them on my computer. It doesn't show you where it downloads to.

I'd be interested in getting these freebies without going through the drama of installing MS passport as well.

Sent to both, but the "Candy and Me" book is too big to send to Yahoo addresses.
