You can access any of Gutenberg's 10,000+ books and have it formated as an e-book in HTML format. Mazarin provides paginations in addition to generating table of contents and other advanced markup features. Of course, you can also view the full book as a single HTML page - wonderful if you are planning to convert it to iSilo or Plucker format. Pluckerbooks is another good resource which offers Gutenberg text files as HTML or Plucker PDB. |

You would think the result would be a sigh of relief from analysts and media. Instead, the articles that resulted generally concluded that the Tablet PC is dead. Folks got to this opinion by taking the obvious shortcut of tying the platform to the unique OS and concluding that if the unique OS is gone, so is the platform -- despite the fact that pictures of tablet computers were liberally sprinkled through both presentations, including the future road map sections." So the Tablet PC is dead - another dispelling misconception about Microsoft? |

PocketGamer is carrying a story on the successful emulation of Windows 95 and Windows 98SE on the Pocket PC. This was made possible by a Pocket PC port of Bochs, a DOS emulator. If you're keen to try this on your own Pocket PC, you'll need a minimum of a 256MB memory card (or stream the image over a wireless network) and you'll need a program like Nyditot Virtual Display to increase your screen resolution. Oh, yes, and you'll also need the emulator. |
