Thank you for bringing this to my attention, sincerely, but I don't
think it will work for me.
The PBBookMaker application seems to create boosk readable only on
hardware that runs Newton OS 2.0. The books will have no search
capability, and finally, the Paperback application is not installed in
the books thus requiring the user to have at least one Newton Paperback
file that does include the application. I can not assume this will be
be the case. Truly cool technology, but too many limits on who will be
able to take advantage of the solution. Alas. We were close.
