Ah, that's a bit disappointing. Do you have DX? My manual says th= at
HTML is directly supported, with loads of other formats, so maybe it's<= br> a DX only feature?

It's not the DX (I don'= t think the DX is available in the UK, it certainly isn't on the Amazon= UK=A0 site) BUT on the US site it says that HTML is supported "throug= h conversion"

However, with the bigger screen PDFs might work OK, but they don't = work very well on the smaller screen.

Great! I'm really glad you found something that works!


It certainly works well for= proper documents, but a bit of a hassle for quick updates. Where in fact H= TML files with the extension chnaged to txt might still be the best option.=
