Kind of sucks that there are no alternative apps out there at a lower price point. Thanks for your response. Also thanks for the info regarding the ability to search the list archive for conversion instructions. Epub, here I come.

Yes, search the list archives for converting to ePub, or Stanza and Bookshare and you should find lots of information.

Richard, I was just asking if there is a way to make another file type ePub. Gave too much information! Being careful typing and not paying attention to what I was writing. Sorry!

My understanding is that all iBooks are ePub, but iBooks are protected so you cannot change them if you down loaded the book using iBooks.

Talking about epub books, are all books from iBooks ePub? If not, will I have to change them? I am going to read a book for bookshare in this format and would like instructions on how to change it if necessary. Thanks!

If you want to jump through a bunch of hoops to say the $19.99 you could use the XML file from the zip file and then use Stanza to create an ePub version and read it in iBooks, or something else. You could even convert it to simple .txt and read it in a number of apps. If you are not familiar with Stanza, I'd search the archives of this group. There are detailed instructions how to convert Bookshare books using Stanza. HTH, Richard _____ From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Kevin W.

Hello folks, I'm just wondering if there are any alternatives to the Read2Go iOS app for reading Bookshare content on my iPhone. $19.99 is a bit steep for an applaud if there are any free or low-cost alternatives I can use, I would be grateful for any suggestions.
