OT Palm -- I've had a Palm or Visor since the day they were made. I suggest you pay a visit Yahoo's PDA page and brows some Palm software sites. I'll PM you some links if you are interested. There are a lot of fan sites that describe their favorite programs. I'd start by getting Avant Go, Vindigo, iSilo, MobileDB, and Plucker. Then get easy calc, BDicty, Hot date, and Handy shopper. If you travel much, also getAbroad!, True Term, and Convert It. Finally, for entertainment consider Go Moku (or Renju), HMaki, Chess Genius, HardBall, and Archon. This should get you started. Sun Tzu PS Handspring announced today you get $100 rebate for any old hand-held.

OT Palm In addition to the standard set, my Palm V has the following applications: TimeReporter--time and expense tracking AvantGo--Web browser. Downloads pages for offline reading. I especially like using it with MapQuest to download maps to meetings. Wireless Internet not required. CSpotRun--Reads Palm's doc format text files. (Not the same format as MS Word)All sorts of books are available in this format. TinyViewer--Views images PocketQuicken--record credit card charges while traveling, sync with desktop Quicken when I get back. Hardball--Breakout workalike game All of these are free or cheap, except you'll pay rather a lot if you get the desktop application that goes with TimeReporter. Palm's web site has a section for third party applications. Well worth a look, as is the Palm section on ZDNet. Katherine
