TomeRaider was one of the first formats to support large reference works (like Wikipedia) on handheld devices. It had readers for PC, PocketPC, Palm, Nokia, Epoc, and Sony Ericsson P800/P900.
Capabilities of the TomeRaider3 e-book reader vary considerably per platform: the Windows and Windows Mobile editions support full HTML and CSS. The Palm edition supports limited HTML (e.g., no tables, no fonts), and CSS support is missing. For Symbian there is only the older TomeRaider2 format, which does not render images or offer category search facilities. Despite these differences any TomeRaider e-book can be browsed on all supported platforms.
The first and second version (TR2) both used the .tr file extension while the third version used the .tr3 file extension. The .pdb file extension was used on Palm.
