There may be some other way to do this, but adding

	<body style="overflow:hidden;">

to whatever html one is reading gets rid of the scrollbar.  So now my
ebook reader has a full (5 in x 7 in, 600x800) display of nothing but
pretty black text on a bright white background.  Every part of the
display is either white background or black text, just like in a real
book.  :)

If there were a way to eliminate the scrollbar without having to modify
the html files, that would be nice.
