I remember reading in Mobile PC Magazine for software on the Palm OS that would scroll text for you across the screen. It was supposed to make reading ebooks, for example, easier because the way the eyes and brains process scrolling text. Does anyone remember this? Do you know where I can find this?

Any experience with this product?

isilo -- it works, it's free or cheap depending on whether you end up buying it. The windows side clipping software (which is what I do mostly, clip articles to read offline) isilox does NOT work with firefox, just IE.

It is very customizable, the UI is a little strange to my case, but you rarely need to use the UI once setup.
