If they're not DRM-ed (and you didn't buy any of those rip-off DRM-books, did you? ;) ), fbreader will read them just fine, with the exception of tables.

Or maybe this site (http://search.cpan.org/~cpb/Palm-Doc-1.19/mobisucks) can help. I haven't used it myself (the only conversions I ever had to do for fbreader was from *.lit to *.fb2 :D ), but it might work.

We got asked the same question over at WOM World (http://www.womworld.com/n800) earlier in the month jazzbass12, Karel was right in saying the FBreader will do the job. It’s available here http://only.mawhrin.net/fbreader/maemo/ if you didnt know where to get it and wanted to try it out. Hope that helps bud :)

Thanks for the advice.
