No, Microsoft's reader will not work with PalmOS devices. If you
can't find the same file in a palm-compatible format the program below
will convert your file to .htm, then there are several programs which
can read or convert that htm for PalmOS.

I don't know of any direct lit reader for the Palm. The problem is that you
can't put a lit file in the Palm main memory.

To read lit books on my Palms I do a little conversion first. I use a lit to txt
converter called LitConverter.exe. Then I put the resulting txt file on a SD
card and use the TiBR Pro reader to read it directly from the card. But if I
want to read it using the Palm main memory I do an additional conversion. I use
MakeDocW.exe to convert the txt file to a Palm doc file (not the same doc files
used on a PC) that will go in Palm main memory and can be read by most any Palm
reader. All the above programs can be found using Google.
