Folks, I'm having an MS Borg moment.
I had long been familiar with Jim Baen's web site. I recently got my Axim so I purchased and downloaded several titles in MS Reader format. I then tried to load the titles to my Axim Of course, it required me to "activate" my copy of MS Reader first.
Here is where my MS phobia begins. Not only must you activate this software first, you must also provide your personal info. Also, unless if I am reading the activation faq incorrectly, you must make your ebook purchase only through an activated device (your pda or pc, etc). Clearly MS tracks your activities and will never never ever use or sell your info.
My question to you is: "Is this the way of the world" and I should stop listening to the whispers coming from my pillow? Or did I take a left turn near Albaquerque, I really don't have to activate anything, and there is a simple way to transfer my download MS reader books from my pc to my pda.
P.S. Very sorry for the long post and I hope the very last run-on sentence above is the correct answer. Thank you.
