SPECIAL NOTE: READ MOBIPOCKET EBOOKS ON MULTIPLE DEVICES!
Now you can read your Secure Mobipocket eBooks on up to three devices. This upgrade is important because many readers like to review eBooks on their personal computers before moving them to their PDAs. Mobipocket has released its PC reader and upgraded its PDA reader. We recommend everyone upgrade to version 4.4. It's quick and painless and worth the added functionality! Download software ... Register Your PIDs at Fictionwise ...
