Project Gutenberg Library question

When I select an author from the library on my MacBook it only gives me the option of downloading in Open eBook format. Using Safari on my iPod Touch, it gives me the option of either Open eBook or Stanza iPod/iPhone format. If I click on this is opens the Stanza App on the iPod, but doesn't do anything else. Is it actually possible to download in a dedicated Stanza iPhone format?

Unfortunately, the iPhone

Unfortunately, the iPhone APIs that Apple exposes does not yet allow a program to handle data downloaded via Safari, so there isn't currently any way for us to launch Stanza when someone clicks on a link.

The current solution is to either use the Online Catalog (which has thousands of the most popular classics available from Project Gutenberg), or else downloading the titles into Stanza Desktop and then synchronizing it with Stanza iPhone.

We do hope to have more options for flexible content acquisition in future versions of Stanza.
