Step1
Turn your Palm Tungsten E2 on by pressing the "Power" button. This should turn the screen on so you can begin the process.

Check to see if your unit already has an eReader program installed on it. If it does not, you will need to do this before continuing. There are several different eReader programs available for a Palm Tungsten E2.

Tips & Warnings

  • It is best to keep the fewest number of books possible on your handheld PC. The files are large and may slow down the device. Instead, keep them saved on your personal computer. It has a larger memory capacity than your handheld.
  • You can open up an account to download eBooks directly from the Palm Tungsten E2 company Web site (see link below). This is a secure and centralized location for many of the eBooks that are available for download.
  • For security reasons, you cannot edit your credit card information. You must create a whole new account if any of your information changes.
  • Check to be certain that the eBook you want to download is compatible with your particular eReader. Some eBooks do not work with some programs.
