Barnes & Noble Formatting

For christmas i receieved 50 or so dollars of Barnes & Noble gift cards, so naturally, my first impulse was to check out their ebooks section online.

After a little bit of research, it seems (according to http://www.barnesandnoble.com/ebooks/help-faqs.asp) that Barnes & Noble is releasing their e-book in .pdb format. I'm downloading this free program: http://www.processtext.com/abcpalm.html to try and convert these books to something that i can use on my kindle.

I'll be back to let you know if it worked or not.

Also, i'm sure i mentioned it before, but the MobiPocket Creator software was invaluable for getting things onto my kindle 2. And i'm sure i'll eventually be using it again in this process to get B&N books on my kindle2. Get it here: http://www.mobipocket.com/en/DownloadSoft/DownloadCreator.asp
