The software which reads this format typically runs on Palm O/S. You can
find out if you have any luck reading this file using a standard text edi-
tor. Maybe the layout will make it legible enough, provided there isn't
too much 'markup' and formatting. Maybe it's binary though, I'm not too
sure.
Perhaps there are desktop-side applications that act as book readers for
this filetype, but I am not aware of any. Lastly, consider running a Palm
emulator on your PC and opening the file using Palm's book reader for Palm
O/S.

Hope it helps,
