Program for downloading google books

Do you know any program for downloading Google books?

If they are downloadable, there is an option in the "tools" menu (click the icon that looks like a gear-wheel at the top right of the screen).

But IMO google books seems to have quietly changed its objective from "digitizing the world's out-of-copyright literature for free download" to "making money for google as a bookseller's advertising site".

We have gutenbergpress and archive.org for that :D

I know about:
http://book.huhiho.com/

But do not feel confident whether its legal in your jurisdiction. Under Polish law it's OK within "dozwolony użytek" (fair use).
