Unfortunately, as I pointed out in another post, the "Palm Reader" books are in a different encrypted format that is only compatible with their own reader software, which isn't (yet) available for the Blackberry.

To use Mobipocket, your books basically have to be either in their own format or in the old raw Palm DOC format. The good news is that you can buy books in Mobipocket format from other companies, such as FictionWise, but the bad news is that if you have a large library of Palm eReader books already (like I do), then Mobipocket won't do it for you.

See http://www.mobipocket.com/en/Support...?ArticleID=358 for more information.
