You got your literature on my PSP. No, you got your PSP on my literature.

Two great tastes come together as one when your PSP meets a library full of classic literature. Of course, ebook reading is nothing new to the PSP, but it has sometimes been a bit of an irksome process to track down and transfer books.

Luckily, the community has psp.manybooks.net to simplify things for us. And when they say "many books," they mean it, backing the claim up with a library of nearly 12,000 classic works.

Each ebook is available to be read live, page-by-page via your PSP's browser, or you can go old-school and download the ebook for transfer to your memory stick.

So, next time Mom says you've been playing too much PSP, you can tell her you're reading Shakespeare (or you can at least load some up real quick so that she thinks your feeding your brain instead of destroying it.)

Online-only reading ... that is the same trouble as with the RSS Channel streaming only!

While at it ... whats the right way to get local HTML files opened on the PSP browser?
If the files are stored on the Memory stick, any way to put in a "file://some_folder_name/abcd.html" ??

(Can't try it now, PSP's at home, I'm not)

Yes, I think you can put the HTML file in the PSP/COMMON directory and then go to the browser and type in:
file:/psp/common/mypage.html

then bookmark it. There might be a way to write the bookmark in it too. Note the amount of "/" characters above. I did file:// and it didn't work.
