Free News and eBooks :o

I found this site:

http://www.mobipocket.com/en/HomePage/default.asp

it has free news and ebooks. The reader is a 14 day trial. It lets you read books and news in the landscape mode! Uses cleartype. Its the closest thing to avantgo I have found. I have not been able to get the desktop syncing but you can get it to send the news once a day as an email attachment, and then open that in the reader.

have you checked out SunnySoft World Off-line?

find it even better than AvantGo as you have a lot more options to choose from when setting up what you want to sync. And using a PDA Portal site like www.pdaportal.us to build up a list of sites makes it really useful - especially with the high GPRS charges we have here

there is a review on it at PPCW.net:
