One thing that always accompany me is my PDA. It’s an Ipaq RX3715 PDA. It has been accompanied me for 1 year plus. I bought the PDA from other person for $350 through HardwareZone.com. So far it has served me well. Hopefully it will continue to do so.
One of the recent activities that I take interest on is reading classic literatures. I found out that this habit is the best way to kill time when I commute using MRT from my home to my workplace in the morning. At least this way I can keep the reading habit alive and make the commuting time efficient. It also prevent me from wasting the time when I queueing for something. So yes, it is a life-saver :).
I used to read those e-books in Microsoft Reader Format (I’ve read those classics such as Captain Blood, The Call of the Wild, Treasure Island, A Study in Scarlet, Great Expectations, The Prince, The Secret Garden in this format). When I recently rediscover the Project Gutenberg, I was really excited with the number of e-book collections available for download.
The best way to read the e-books from project Gutenberg is to install Vade-Mecum, a plucker document reader for Pocket PC.
So far I have downloaded all Mark Twain‘s books. And currently immersed with Tom Sawyer’s adventures.
In short:
- Download Microsoft Reader for Pocket PC
- Download Vade-Mecum, Plucker reader for Pocket PC
- Download the Free E-Books in Microsoft Reader Format
- Download the free E-Books in the Plucker Format
Have fun reading!
