Pocket PC version
Today v2.2
The Today application gathers information from the built-in applications Date Book, Mail and To Do and displays the things to do today together with current time and date and owner of the handheld device.
***** Great tool on my Treo 600. I have only 2 problems and the mail address of Jonas Lindstedt is not working. When i use VersaMail i have 5 unread messages more then in VersaMail all the time. And second, when i use "run every 12 hours" instead of "Run always" the Treo screen goes on short every minute.
***** Best freeware for my palm m515. thanks.
***** Rates with the best programs for palm OS, a must download. A sugestion is to have an option for it to be the program that launches when you tap the home button.
***** Such a useful program that you wonder why it's functionality is not already an integral feature for the Palm OS. Works great on a Zire.
***** Works great on my T|T3!!! I would like an extra button to jump straignt to the current date (like Go To -> Today) and support for Hi-Res screens (320x480) and landscape mode (480x320) - Hopefully in a future version...
***** This is a GREAT program! Now we just need a hi-res version! (And maybe 320x480 for us CLIE users!)
***** Great application, compliments! Simple, clean and powerful. All main tasks of the day in one screen. :]
***** Great program! Works great on my [small&BW] Zire. Thanks!
***** This program really helps out a lot because when I first turn on my handheld each morning, I really would like to see what I need to accomplish that day without the hassle of pressing the calendar button when I have just woken up. I also like how the themes that are downloadable for this are really cool. This program makes a Palm OS look like a Pocket PC. That is really cool.
***** I think its great,I thried it on both my zire and zire31.
***** This *has* been done before, just not for the PalmOS. This is a replica of the Today screen for the PocketPC. It's extremely useful for PocketPC's, but it's also a useful tool for PalmOS. Enjoy it, but Jonas was not the first.
***** In fact someone did it before... and that's the exact same Today Screen as the PocketPC OS... :)
***** "It seems so simple and it's extremely useful, you would think someone would have done it before now." They did - it's called a Pocket PC. :-)
***** Fantastic application! Incredibly useful and functional. Too good to be freeware (not that I'm complaining!) One feature I'd like (and this isn't a compleint or demand, of course) is to see a summary of email messages (I have a Treo 600)
***** This is indeed one amazing free application. If it only had an audible alarm and/or vibration when an unread message appered in the Inbox after Hotsync - WOW!!
***** Wah lau! What a great program! Finnally a customizable skin and favourite shortcuts for my SJ30! Now if only I can find some hires icons...
***** This is a great app - it makes the palm so easy to use. Keep up the great work.
***** I spent two weeks or so trying to work out why this ap didnt work in conjunction with DATAVIZ "beyond contacts"....it really got me stumped until it dawned on me that today works soley with the inbuilt date...todo etc components. Well thats what I eventually found out anyway. Having completely rid my Treo 600 of the Dataviz components and reinstalled Today......I am 100% now a dedicated.....happy and grateful user of this top top TOP free application. Only gripe though is that there dont seem to be any nice to look at skins with decent backdrops that also show the clock option. I have tried all of the ones I can find. XP skin is cool....as is the Palm OS5....but they all have awful or non existant backgrounds. I simply want a coloured background without any bells and whilstles that will show off the application screen. Apart from that this TODAY is the best program free or bought that is available today.... Keep up the Cool work...
***** Using on a Samsung SPH I-500. I have been using this program for a couple of weeks now and it works flawlessly. All features work as described and I use it every day. A really neat little program.
***** Very useful and simple application. Working great on my Prism. Assigned a button for it. Cool!!
***** Slight visual artifacts left if you attempt to drag an item up but the program is excellent -- works on this palm v with palm os 3.5.
***** I tried the version 1.1 on my m125 and it works. Great Work.
***** I love this. Running it on a Zire 71, it's as good as the iPaq. You done a great Jorb.
***** Very nice looking interface. Works great with the Powerlaunch Hack.
***** I love this! I love looking at just one screen to see what I've got going on instead of tapping from one program to the next. FABULOUS! Great work, Jonas!
***** It's a great program. Works nice on my dad's Treo 90. I like the built in one on my Tungsten E. This reminds me a lot of it.
***** Great! Works fine on my m505! Very useful as I've already assigned the datebook button to the application! Greetz, Web*
***** Thank you so much for creating this jewel. I was considering buying a pricey Pocket PC just for this very function - thank goodness I found this precious little program! I'm recommending it to all of my friends.
***** Wow! Probably the most impressive app for my palm. I've been after something like this for ages. I'm 13 and have used palm for 2-3 years and this is one of the best ever apps i have used. Very Cool!
***** THANK YOU...for this program!! It's functional but boasts an attractive layout, stable, & user friendly w/o compromising on features.
***** Great Software, I used to have the compaq 3850 and recently got the sony clie, love the today screen. Great Job.
***** Works fine [NO CRASHES] on my Handspring Visor. Very usefull on a quick check of my busy life. Thanks Jack.
***** Great App! I have it set to appear after every hotsynch so that I can see at a glance if there is any new meetings, tasks or Mail waiting for me. The only thing that is lacking is the ability to make it show all tasks - it will only show tasks that are due on that day, where as I would like to be able to see what is comming up over the next few days (and what is high priority etc), I have had to resort to assigning no due date to any of them :-(. Other than that this is one of the best apps I have found.
***** Excellent programme, couleur de surcroit (Palm IIIc). J'ai traduit l'interface en Français - c'est plus clair tout de même...
***** Absolutely perfect programm. Thanx!
***** Nice. I agree w/ fairbankstech below on the selection of apps launched from the tap.
***** I love. However, I wish you could browse to tomorrow or 2 days from now or 3 days from now. So you could get that useful information.
***** This program is excellent, and would be the exact, perfect thing I had been looking for if it had this one feature: that the "Tasks" feature only showed whateven catagory the "To Do" was set to, and that it used whatever show optioins you had set it "To Do". This would make it more useful, as it wouldn't automatically show every single item in your "to do" list, but only what you wanted it to show (whate category, only uncompleted, only due, etc.). This is the way that Palm own "agenda" display in the Datebook works, and it would be better if "Today" did the same. Other than this, "Today" is the ultimate utility for your Palm, and I am realy suprised Palm didn't have something like this to begin with.
***** I rate this excellent because I know this is a gret program (from 1.7), but the new version 1.8 doesn't seem to run on my palm Vx. I have no clue yet, but it might not be from that program... Oh well, I guess 1.7 will just have to do...
***** Thanks Jonas Lindstedt! Very good app! And freeware!
***** Absolutely amazing. It organizes the screen so much better and is so quick to find my information. Keep up the good work!!!
***** This app previously crashed my M105 but I tried version 1.1 which now works perfectly. I like this function on the Pocket PC's but cannot fault the Palm OS so it's like having the best of both worlds. Clean and tidy interface, and really useful. Nice one!
***** I'm happy to add to the stack of five star reviews of this application. I'm not exagerating when I say that I appreciate it more each day.
***** Comment: Great Application and see if next version can show active to-do tasks.
***** Great stuff!! That was the only thing PocketPC had over Palms.
***** Great app -- one of those things that should have been included with the Palm platform. But it hasn't worked well on the Kyocrea 6035 since v 1.3. It messes up the "phone" portion of the screen when it's first run when the flip is closed.
***** [Update review] Been using Today since v1.0 without any problems whatsoever on Palm IIIx and Palm V. This version will work on a Palm V upgraded to 8MB RAM and OS 4.1 *but with an incorrect OS checksum*. Thank you from Hong Kong for still making it a freeware. Jonas, you really ought to consider licensing this to Palm for the next OS release and make some money for yourself. You actually have a winner here. Happy New Year to all Today'ers.
***** You're the best!!! Even if it is a commercial-ware, I will still willing to pay for it.... Thanks for keeping it free!!! Great feature! It's the most essential palmware for my palm ever!!! If there is a best freeware award, you will definitely get my vote!
***** Super, V1.2 works well on my 505, also the run after a defined off time, I would prefer to define this time in minutes, and I like some ideas from other users mentioned here, but I like also the smallness only 20 kb for this fine tool. Regards from berlin.
***** This is beautifull and refresh my eyes. Many thanks to the author.
***** The best program for PALM @ the moment. Excellent to use, it really brings out the organisation feature of 'TODAY' where Palm has long lagged behind PocketPC. It tells you everything you need to know to keep you organised, without having to browse through all of Palm's Programs. A true classic. Congratulations Jonas!
***** Wow what an amazing aplication, it's "cute" everything youwould want to know when you boot up your palm is in your face. How wonderful.
***** An absolutely brilliant app! The only thing I've ever envied about Pocket PC's was the fact that their PDA's resembled MS Outlook. Now you have transformed my Palm m505 into the best unit on the market, purely by a simple interface to my Datebook and ToDo's. Thank you, especially for distributing it as freeware. I look forward to any updates in the future. PS: I have mapped Today to my Datebook button which has freed up my ToDo button for a different app. Also, my Palm has yet to crash with this app. Lastly, the reason why you might have active ToDo's is because you haven't assigned due dates to them. Palm automatically treats them as due today.
***** Fantastic program, just how Palm Apps should be, small footprint and easy to use. Works great on my Treo, I have it activate when I open the lid. Please, please can we have more skins. I would like more skins that are business looking. More importantly can I create my own?
***** Cool application for my m130. Thanx a lot man ur indeed a genius!!!
***** Always better, always better... Compliments Jonas! :] Very nice and useful pgm, very responsible author. A must have program! :]
***** Great program. Look for skins in FreewarePalm's "Graphics: Miscellaneous" directory.
***** v1.6 works great on my Palm IIIc but v1.7 crashed requiring reste when first run. I went back to v1.6.
***** I live happily with this program. I use EasyLunch Hack to override App button and DISABLE "Always run Today" option. This helps me to maintain same program when power up Palm by the power switch. This program is great ! Thanks to Jonas Lindstedt.
***** Just what my Visor was missing. After reading the comments from other people about this program, I noticed that some features you asked for, such as being able to choose the programs(so you could use datebook+ instead of datebook), and having it start automatically whenever you turn it on or after x hours. And its still just 25k. Just a few ideas I wouldn't mind sacrificing space for: let the user choose a program to launch for the clock(such as citytime), be able to list a specified number to do items, instead of just a number(scrolling would probably be required), and maybe add a battery section, with a voltage/percent visual guage. All in all, this is one of the most useful programs I've found.
***** For the 1st time, I have an opening page. It usually started at the last application. This is a great little program, and can't wait to see more Themes for Today.
***** I always felt something was lacking on my M100, but never knew what it was until now! Whee! It makes using my Palm that much easier. Now if I can only get it to make my coffee in the morning...
***** I see some review say that it can't use in sony clie, but my T665C can work. Also, it can display chinese!!!!! Very Good Program.
***** This is an amendem to my 1st review, when I install 1.7 it crashed my clie T615C, I couldn't get it to work. My problem was the utilitity CRASH that was also installed on my Clie. I had to 1st disable the CRASH software THEN remove it from my Clie. With that program gone, Today works like a charm. If you are having a problem with Today try removing ALL your hack programs then installing Today. Great Program, I couldn't live without it! Thanks Jonas!
***** GOOD FRIGGING APP. I can't say more about it. I have a Palm515 and is working without problems with this app. I am a tech at a staffing company in San Diego and I am constantly busy. This is an excellent "At-a-Glance" app. I have Beamed it have suggested www.freewarepalm.com to all my associates. Keep going with this,.. this is AWESOME!!!!!
***** I have been using Today for some time now and think its absolutely great. With the v1.7 it doesn't launch Today when I turn on my handheld I was able to set it up to launch at startup. v1.6 worked nicely. Everyone should give Today a try-you won't be dissappointed. Thank you for a fine program.
***** Hey! This apps reminds me of my Pocket PC Outlook interface. Everytime I switch on my iPaq, I see this screen in beautiful colour. Great that someone wrote this for PalmOS.
***** VERY nice looking, very functional and very needed addition to the Palm platform. I would like to say THANK YOU for making this available to us and especially for free! I really missed the Today screen from my Jornada and now I am thrilled all over again now that I am back to the Palm OS. If anyone reading this knows where to get additional skins, I would appreciate hearing from you. Thanks again!
***** Wonderfully elegant ~ give this a try! (works on my m515).
***** Absolutely perfect for everything that is happening on the day selected. I have to hand it to the creator : YOUR A GENIUS MATE!!!!! :-)
***** Absolutely necesairy on the clie PEG NR70VH (there is no front buttons).
***** I love this program!
***** WHOA!!!...it even looks and werks gr8 on my m100! Thx alot.
***** Very good. very usefull.
***** Great software. You need this: get it, install it, link it to the hardware button.
***** I love this guy!!! This program rocks!!!
***** Splendid! I wish, though, that it could pop up notes attached to events or to-do items.
***** Excellent application until v1.4 that crashes on opening on my Palm IIIc and a reset is needed, whereas v1.3 works perfectly well.
***** An excellent program! Most useful too. Perhaps you could add a line to tell you when the last HotSynch was. Keep up the good work!
***** I love the program. This was the only thing I missed when I switched from a pocket pc. Good job, I do have a suggestion though; there should be a way to remove the arrows from the calendar screen.
***** Thanks for making this "GREAT" software. I am really happy to use this software for free.
***** Great! Gathers everything that's happening TODAY on one screen. Good options. Palm should pay the author well and integrate it into the next OS version !!!!!
***** Great app, this keeps me up to date all the time.
***** Thanks for a great app and it just keeps getting BETTER!
***** v1.6 is very nice and user-friendly, but unfortunately, I accidentally deleted the program... So, I had to re-download it again. This time, the new installation crashed my m130! What happened?
***** How did I get by without this up to now? Makes knowing what needs to be done extremely useful.
***** Thanks, it works wonderfully. I had to delete Weekview from my TRGpro, as it had a conflict with your application, but thereafter there were no more fatal exceptions, and it seems that I am going to keep it in leu of Weekview.
***** Just what I've been looking for. This app brings it all together into one screen. Very cool, Thanks!
***** Excellent update to the Today UI. I really like what the author has done in regards to offering more use of themes. Looking forward to using this on a regular basis.
***** This is a super useful app. It puts the stuff you need right up front, giving you an instant summary of date and time, anything scheduled for the day, any unread messages or things to do, with access to those apps by tapping the appropriate icon. And it tells you the state of memory and battery with a simple bar graphic. Works great on my Clie PEG-S360. Highly recommended.
***** I love this program. I've used version v1.5 and, now v1.6, on my m500 with no problems whatsoever. I wish the time would update a little faster when turning on the Palm, but the 10 seconds wait really isn't going to make a huge difference.
***** Great program. v1.5 used to cause problems with my Kyocera 6035, and I eventually had to delete it and live without. Today 1.6 seems to have all the prior bugs fixed and I love it. The best freeware I have seen. Thanks for making my day even more productive, it gives me time to play on the internet.
***** Just tried v1.6... and it works great! Lots of the bugs I was seeing earlier are gone. My only suggestion would be to show ToDo's on every line (instead of every other line) when the user chooses not to display Due Date and Priority information. Keep up the great work!
***** Great Great Great!! Simply, pretty, and indispensable program. Now with this last release it seems perfect on my M515. Thank again!!
***** Great job Jonas! It works great with my sony t665c! Thanks!
***** This software is one of the very good and it is free. I am usind the 1.5 version and I cant remove the check mark in the preference «Alwayse run Today», this I dont like, we should have the control on the software on not him on us.
***** That's a very useful utility for me. Easy-to-use and the pretty layout are my favourites.
***** Today is AWESOME! I especially like the title-bar system information. I only wish Today could tell when my Kyocera 6035 Smartphone has unread messages (Jonas, I believe they're in a file called "kwc_messages").
***** Sorry, on that last comment, I was referring to the Palm-powered Kyocera SmartPhone.
***** Superb application. Only bug I've seen is that versions 1.4 and up distort the "phone" portion of the screen when the flipscreen is in the closed position and the Today program launches automatically on wakeup. 1.3 doesn't have that problem. But other that that this is a much-needed addition to the Palm -- one of those things they should have built in.
***** A "Terrific Application" and it is "Free"! Thanks for "fixing the Bug" in the May '02 Release that plagued this Visor User. Have "valued" your application for some time and told others of its "value". Great Work!
***** Great app! Used 1.4 for some time now. Just got 1.5 and still works great on my Clie320. Good job!
***** Just a little bug on launching something with Calendar button..... Could you solve it? Thanks.
***** I love this app!! Its great! A must have.
***** Kudos, Jonas, on new features! Only one problem for me: If there is more than one screen full of info, tapping the scroll bar on my IIIe causes a fatal error. CRASH! Never had any problems with your program 'til now. I still love it!
***** Outstanding! Simple, uncluttered,elegant and extremely flexible - I can honestly not believe it's free. Runs smooth as silk on my m515, and I'm loaded with 3rd party fun & games, and NO crashes. VERY WELL DONE!
***** I just installed it to my m505 and love it! It shows holidays, unread emails, and the day's scheduled activities. Wonderful!
***** Wonderful app! I am presently using v1.3, which has been excellent thus far and I presume that v1.4 will be an improvement on a superb product. This is a must-have for all business people who use Palm OS handhelds. Thanks, Jonah!
***** GREAT app! Thanks a lot. I was using version 1.0 until now because newer versions were crashing my Clie S-320. Now I downloaded 1.4 and it works just perfect. Thanks again.
***** I've been using Today ever since it first came out. Excellent on my IIIx, with no problems whatsoever. This is a must-have app. Cheers.
***** Downloaded v1.4 a few days ago... Well, as a follow up to my previous review, this version is indeed a great improvement from the previous one. I especially like the tiny clock at the top of the app that will also move according to the time, very interesting! Thanks Jonah!
***** Just downlaoded the 1.4 on my Palm Vx and work fine. Thank You.
***** Causes fatal error when Teal lock is on. But perhaps the best freeware I've seen in a while. Great work.
***** Awesome app. I switched to Palm OS from PPC, and not having a prog like this was the only thing I missed. Highly recomended.
***** Great app! It also works on the Sony CLIE S series now.
**** Now this is what I would call a D'uh! application. It seems so simple and it's extremely useful, you would think someone would have done it before now. Kudos to Jonas Lindstedt for coming up with it first.
**** Great program! It makes my transition to palm (fr Pocket PC) a smooooother one. It would be great if it can go full screen on my SONY UX50/G. As it is, the silkscreen area is a little cosmetically challenge, otherwise I would have rated this as excellence ***** program :-)
**** Nice work. I appreciate the effort. Had a little trouble with the Owner displaying my info, but after reinstalling the app, it worked fine. What can I say, I'm vain. Thanks again and keep up the good work. Note: Downloaders/commentators, please read the programmer's README txt before nagging about any bugs.
**** I've used Today since version 1.0 (If I remember). All of them worked without problem until 1.4. It is causing a fatal exception on my Palm IIIxe. I hope the next version works for me. It's a great program.
**** I have a Treo 600, and I just downloaded this great app today. For those using the e-mail app that came with the Treo updater, do you know how to make the e-mail client sync with Today? For example, it always says "No unread messages; no unsent messages." If you have a solution, please e-mail - bym7792@asianavenue.com. Thanks!
**** It would be really cool to be able to change the default programs that are launched when you tap the icon. (For those of us using programs like DateBK4 or DataViz Mail.) All in all pretty cool.
**** Does what it says. Small bug on my (German) version corrected in hours by Jonas - nice one! Would be nice to have alternate options (Eudora vs. Mail; Diddlebug vs. ToDo), but a good example of KISS software.
**** Sweet! Here's a really useful, simple app! The only thing I wish is support for the Handera soft grafitti area. But even without that it's a must-use!
**** Outlook today now in my Palm!
**** A vert well thought out App, but a word of caution - entries 'Hidden' in the Datebook will appear in clear when previewed in 'Today'!
**** I enjoy making myself skins. But having a problem on Japanese environment. I like this than complex launcher Apps or Schedular,desire the further improvement.
**** Great app but it crashes and needs a reset (m505) when several appointments are made on the same moment. Needs to be fixed towards a new version.
**** It was perfect on my clie sj30. I especially like being able to view the calendar or the today screen by pressing the datebook button. now with my tg50 I can't get that funtionality back. I also cant get the views in the description. Other than that, its a great application. My favorite!
**** If I wasn't already using HotDate on my Palm I might be interested. It certainly looks prettier than HotDate, but I don't think it's as useful: in fact I'd rather replace Today on my Pocket PC with something more like HotDate... :-)
**** Great application. It would be great to be able to see all tasks for today from the initial screen.
**** Love the program, but with the latest version the week-view crashes my Clie T665. I think someone else said they had this same problem on the Clie.
**** Very good interface, as well as the speed. But it will be better if more built-in tools available e.g. beam, VFS explorer.
**** [v1.7] Today is a great program, and is worth trying out. Its only downfall is that it needs a "concise" mode that compresses the amount of information on the screen. Sometimes the two-line entries are ridiculous.
**** This is a very good program, I like seeing my day when I turn my Palm on. I did encounter a serious problem with the new skins. I installed them last week and then began getting a Fatal Exception warning. After doing hard resets, writing to Palm, reloading data, etc. I finally figured out the problem. Well, sort of! The skins that are not giving me problems are Green, Tulips, Letters, Folders and the Default Skin. If you do load new ones on your Palm, be fore-warned!! Otherwise, a great program.
**** Needs a colour version.
**** Finally a well graphic utility for our palm devices. It seems that the palm programmers keep a low graphic detail, now we have the right interface. Easy to use and to configure, you can change the skins. For me is a really usefull launcher and a well interfaced way to see my jobs. Jonas, when we can see your site?
**** Very nice! I miss only one thing: An option for displaying the meetings for the next x days. If my friend´s birthday is tomorrow, I wouldn´t notice it today...
**** Very good software, but changing the monthly view screen just provides a blank screen.
**** Nice update except for one problem - the week view locks up my Clie T665. I don't know if this a problem just with the T665 or Clie's in general. Otherwise, a great program.
**** Looks very good, but can't work with plenty and long calendar entries! crashes my 505 hard - only a system erase bring me my palm back. for the future I would like error free function and for todos a listing or a filter possibility.
**** I have found myself relying on this app more everyday. I also would like to see todo's that are in the future. fix that and you get the fifth star!
**** Works great on my prism! I like how you can tap on tasks or calender and be taken to those aps. I am a recent convert to palm o/s from p/pc and it is very nice to have this function back.
**** Application is nice but the graphics on the Tungsten are not as good as they could be. They don't seem to work as well with hi-res.
**** I had a Pocket PC and loved the Today screen. Really nice to have this on my m505! But there really should be an option to have the Today screen be the 1st thing you see when you turn on the Palm, just like with the PPC.
**** Great app, however, it has not run stable on my device since several versions ago. I enjoy all of the current features but I find that it causes my Palm to crash too often. Granted, this may be a problem with two apps "not playing nicely together" but I am not aware of what the other offending app would be. Currently, I am running version 1.2 as that has been stable for me so far. All in all, this is a great app.
**** Fantastic application, especially when combined with the power on hack--so it is the first thing that you see when you turn your unit on! One suggestion that would be a great improvement--allow users to specify which programs are used for each section. I use Datebook+ on my Handspring--but this program only uses Datebook. This improvement would make this application a 5-star!
*** That's a fair enough app, but newer versions seem to crash my m105 with a MemHandler exception every time after I turn it on. Even without anything else installed, Today crashes the Palm, as soon as I exit the Hotsync application. Running it on POSE (the PalmOS emulator), it reveals waaaay too many warnings about improper access to specific memory locations and ends with the exception on MemHandler. A nice app, but in the end nothing essential. Make it run stable first, and then play with skinning.
*** What's with the + and - buttons to scroll between days? What's wrong with arrows? Why is + before - ? Nice app, but UI things like the + - just annoy me. 3 seconds to make it look right.
*** Great program, but takes ages to open on my Clie SJ30 (Palm OS 4).
*** Great program but it doesnt integrate well with the phone fiture for kyocera 6035, I really hope they`ll make an update for that phone cause I want to use it.
*** I like the interface. And should be better if I have a color device. But one thing annoys me, the To Do active task counter is not accurate. I just can't figure out how it comes out with the active task number. I thought this is fixed in this update, but it's not. Quickly deleted off my Palm.
*** This is a nice interface for a Palm. I used it on my Tungsten T however there was one major problem with the Tasks. The tasks with due dates were not showing on the submenu task list until their due date. This is annoying as one cannot look ahead and see what tasks are due. If this feature was corrected I would give it a definite excellent rating. I used the program with Ksdatebook.
*** Version 1.1 was great, but latest version 1.2 crashed my Sony Clie!!!
*** It can't be set as a default launcher but it works well in my palm m515.
*** Nice app, but has problems with the Kyocera 6035 smartphone. I set it to 'always show on startup' and it doesn't interact well with the phone. It causes the resolution to be messed up on the phone display (when I have the flip closed). If I open the flip to go into palm-mode it works fine. But, it messes up the phone display.
** v1.6 was great v1.7 crashed my Sony T615. Don't know why. When it worked, (v1.6) loved the program but something is up with v1.7.
* Would have really loved to have this program, but it immediately crashed my sony peg-s360. Please do something for it to work for clie users!
* Oops! While v 1.6 runs quite well v 1.7 killed my m515 several times (hard reset). By the way, Today is a real great app (5 stars for that) but with a bug (?) like that... : (
* Fatal error. Crashes a Clie S-360.
* v1.6 crashes my Workpad c3 (Vx) for some reason... yet v1.5 [which is really excellent] works perfectly fine... but I don't need the new stuff in v1.6 anyways... the program is slowly getting on the large side.
* The new version crashed my Visor Prism :-(. PLZ fix it cause Ive liked this program a lot but now the new version just ruined it all for my Prism. Thanks.
* Every time I try to scroll down, I get fatal exception error, requiring soft reset. Very annoying. Great concept, buggy program :+(
* Will be a great improvement on v1.2, but causes a Fatal Error on installation on my m500.
* Crashes my clie!!! :( wish I had v1.0 back!
* Version 1.4 results in fatal error. Using Palm V (Version 1.3 works great).
GeekSounds v2.4
Free replacement alarm sounds for geeks. This is my personal collection, but many people I know seem to enjoy it.
***** Great sounds and works great with my T3
***** This is fantastic. So simply and easy to use and I wake up to something exciting instead of the same old built in chirp.
***** Rock on! This is great! No more Boring alarms!
***** Excellent program. It would be nice if there was a plugin included to randomize alarms.
***** This is the coolest thing since ice packs! This package has some of the most recognizable sounds in modern society, like the Nokia mobile phone ring! Sweet!
***** Great alarms! and they work well on my Tungsten E. I look forward to an updated version!
***** Woah! Over 100 alarms of shier geniuse! Its only minor flaw is alarm master cannot read many of your alarms. Again, other than that its perfect!
***** It's great man!!!! I have fun all the time with it, I even wake up every hearing at my favorite songs like Terminator, etc. Excellent Job!!!
***** These are terrific - I had a blast going through and listening to them all. Nice small file sizes. I got rid of some larger sound files that weren't nearly as fun. :-)
***** Works wonderfully on my Tungsten E! It would be nice if you can incorporate some of the newer movie tunes like LOTR, Pirates of the Caribbean, Spiderman etc. :) Just a thought.
***** Great software. I use it on my Tungsten T3 with no problems. 1 request, can we get the theme from Shaft please!
***** Work great on my zire.
***** The Mac problem isn't just with this file, it's with any Midi systems file. For some reason it isn't recognized as a Palm file... not good. I'd like to use this, help would be appreciated by me as well.
***** I just bought a Tungsten E and loaded the Midi Geek sounds and they worked jsut fine. Great add on to the palm software.
***** Works great at my tungsten E. Just delete the original with Filez, and hotsync it. Now, I wish I could use it in more places than just Datebook...
***** I love all the cool sounds.
***** I'm using a T2 (which I just got) This list of alarms ROCKS!!!
***** T3 Tungsten did not work at first. Was English version. It was not sufficient to rename the old version of the DB. I had to actually delete the old (renamed) file before my T3 used the new file. Great. Somebody send some salsa to add to it.
***** This is so cool! I just go through the alarms to listen to them for fun. I was able to install from the mac just fine. Great Work!
***** The best Alarm collection in the history of the universe!....It really is. Noe I'm searching for a good randomizer becuase there are to many good ones to try and choose just one or two.
***** Great Tool! But if your original MIDI file is not "System_MIDI_Sounds" (like on my german 505) you have to follow the steps below to avoid playing always the alert sound:
***** The best program ever an absolute must have.
***** These work great on my Clie SJ33. I love the selection and they're short enuf to actually use! (other pack I downloaded had actual 3min songs, too long for alarm use.) Regarding above: Clie PEG-S360, I don't believe you have polyphonic (multinote) sound, so no these won't work for you.
***** Got it to work on my Tungsten T3. The problem lies in the names. On my German T3 the System-Soundfile is called "MIDI-Systemsignale". If you rename the pdb to this it will work. To find out, how your Midi-DB is named, use a file tool (like FileZ, my fav) and sort by Type ID searching for smfr/psys. It should show only one file. Use this Name before adding it to honsync install.
***** Great Sounds.
***** As if it needed another review. Works flawlessly (except not for world clock, which is annoying) and the database is absolutely enormous, especially since it only takes 38K! Airwolf is the perfect sound, very long so I'll hear it eventually, yet none of the individual notes are held too long like some of the others I would have liked.
***** This only makes my Palm MORE FUN!!!
***** I love the sound choices. VERY good update!
***** I had it on my Prism and LOVED it. Just got a Treo 600 and am hoping for an update so I can install it on the Treo. ABSOLUTELY the best!
***** Great! Can´t wait ´till next version. Please release it!
***** Great little toy, but is it possible to make every event a different alarm?
***** I use here in South America spanish version, but when I try changed my Palm language to english ... really it works very well !!!
***** Works fine on my Visor Deluxe and my son's M105. We play Name That Tune with them.
***** Top notch fun!! I had it on my Visor Prism and it funtioned flawlessly. I have a Zire 71 now and I have experienced no problems at all. I highly recommend it for those who get tired of your simple system alarm sounds.
***** Works well in my Zire 71. It just won't work with the World Clock, but it's working perfectly in all other alarms.
***** This is great! The sounds are fabulous! The Adams Family really had me chuckling! Really nice job.
***** This is great !! We all now the Palm Sound System sucks, but with this database, at least the beeps are beeping a lot cooler !
***** Wonderful! So many to chose from I have a hard time deciding. But I have one request--"Happy Birthday" I want to attach it to my birthday reminders.
***** That is great! Too bad you don't have some more recent movies and such, but the ones available are great. Thanks for such a great program.
***** Amazing collection of sounds! Thank you! I was looking for some great replacement sounds, but these take the cake! What a collection!
***** One of the best FREE downloads I've done. Would be awesome if it worked for clock also.
***** This is a great addon. It gives alot more to what was lacking for the PalmOS.
***** Crap! Theres so many! Great program. I just wish that it could work on the clock.
***** I LOVE THIS! Works fine on my m125. This is GREAT, it's funny to play one in the middle of class..Mwhah..
***** Excelent program, it works in my Tungsten T!, unfortunately not in teh clock, but anyway it is a must have!
***** I have had problems trying new systems sounds (on Mac). This works just great. Any chance you could incorporate the other sounds used by Act Names as well? I like their collection... the Doors, etc. You have some of the same sounds (the muppets) but not all.
***** Awesome sounds, adds nice touch to palm, but what is a big dissapointment is that half the people on this site have Macs. I would have figured they would have computers.
***** Probably my most used download. I leave for work every morning to the "A-Team" theme. Keep up the good work!
***** It doesn't work on my Palm 125. Now only working with "alarm" sound on every sound. Please explain me what can I do. Thanks, Fco.
***** Te dejaste caer la grena perro.
***** Gracias cabrón, excelente programa!!!!
***** I love this program! I want you the programer to make a random option so that I can hear all the sounds without having to keep on changing. It's a wonderful idea I thought of while listening to the alarms for the fisrt time. I hope you do, do it...and please keep it free! WOW this is way to cool...I've become a geek:)
***** Sheer bloody class!! Monty Python theme is my favourite... Nice!
***** Awesome!! Speaking as a professional geek, I thought it was an excellent choice of sounds, and the variety was great!
***** Awesome. Took me a second to figure it out, but it is a must have program!!!!
***** Felicitaciones. Muy bueno.
***** This is so awesome! It does work on my 105. You have to down load this! It's better than ringer toans!
***** I LOVE IT! hope to see lots of new versions!
***** Works great on my m100. In addition, I can rename the alarms and even edit them with HoHo. And the original sounds remain unchanged. Great program! Keep it up!
***** I love Geek sounds!! Especially like the Uncle Fucka addition!!! More South Park!!!
***** Hey, this would be a great "Name That Tune" game. I have plsyed these tunes with my coworker and it is amazing how many he was able to guess!
***** It doesn't work on my m105. Is there something that I need to have in my palm before it can work?
***** This is really great, all my coworkers love it, we will wait more upgrades.
***** This...is...FANTASTIC!!!
***** Excellent addition to my Palm M500. Great stuff and it works wonderfully! And by the way, for all your M505 and M515 users, have you ever thought that just maybe the 505's and 515's are inherently defective?
***** Excellent, great for jazzing up your palm.Thanks for making it free!
***** Great! if you use it with random alarms you get entertained every time the alarm goes off!
***** One word: GREAT!!! Really love it.
***** Excellent. Great selection. Is there a way to designate certain alarms for different events without manually changing alarm? Is "Jaws" available?
***** Justin, I absolutely love the sounds, but it doesn't work with BugMe V3.8. It works great with my Note Pad. Could you kindly advise me on what steps to take? Thanks.
***** Any way to make it work with the alarm in the clock? Super little app.! I love the Death Star!
***** All those 515 users-try installing the Clie sounds. Then all the great geek noises worked fine. Heaps of fun!!
***** The best of the movie/TV alarms. A few of them actually have some emotional depth. Godfather Theme, especially! Shows off existing (but, alas, limited) Visor sound capabilities!
***** Great! Takes place bot very interusting!
***** Mr. Cutler is very generous to share this with us. It is a wonderful addition to my Palm.
***** This is an awesome database! I had so much fun going through all the sounds and it is fun to set alarms now. I am looking forward to seeing this collection grow!
***** Wow! Finally some good alarm sounds! 1 question on star wars- why the cantina song instead of the theme song? Would prefer that! Hope to see new packs with new stuff (hint hint)!
***** Works grat on my m505. Thank you.
***** Sounds works fine at my Palm Vx. I was able to install sounds from Mac just fine(mac rules). Great sounds!!!
***** Justin, This is one of the best utilities for Palm. It has made my Visor less boring and my appointment reminders more interesting. Please keep up the good work! Please know that your work is deeply appreciated and admired by all. God Bless You!!!
***** The defaults were driving me nuts. This is a welcome replacement that won't be replaced.
***** Whoa!!! I will never get rid of this!!!
***** Man! This should be on everyones "essentials" list. What a great program. AND ITS FREE. Now thats a phatty :D
***** No problems with install. Works great. This is an EXCELLENT add-on to your palm. Almost like a flash back in time listening to all the old classic TV theme songs.
***** Very nice. Attention Audrey and David: You may be able to correct the problem you are experiencing by reselecting an alarm sound on all alarms established prior to the installation of the new midi database. Any new alarms should be fine with whichever alarm you chose at the time of their creation. Hope this helped.
***** This is great. Tons of sounds, something for everyone.
***** Este programa funciona de maravila, es una gran eleccion, mi palm es una 125 y agrega vida. Es indispensable tenerlo! gracias Justin.
***** Works great on my IIIc, specially the Indiana Jones that is my favorite.
***** The best thing for my palm since...the last best thing for my palm.
***** I don't even use it as a alarm just play whenever to cheer up my day! Thanx.
***** These are great! I have a Sony Clie 610, and the difference these "songs" make in my day are well worth the download. MORE!!!
***** I am having the same problem - No alarms.
***** This is a real cool program and what a range! congratulations! A treat for an geek who is also an audiophile! Thanks!- shyam.
***** Wow, it even has Britney Spears voice talking dirty. I love it! Thanks!
***** Love it- My husband and I were playing around with it for quite some time. We have palm 105's and it works on them. The Dueling banjos has one off note but I imagine the guy who wrote this was limited to how many notes he could put in a song since it skipped some of Rudolph the Rednosed Reindeer. He probably was limited on which notes were there- or maybe I'm just giving him the benefit of the doubt. :)
***** Thanks....
***** That is what i want, i will share with my friend.
***** Thanks for cheering up my day! It works like a charm!
***** **Absolutely** the BEST thing I've added to my Visor. Great contribution. Thanks Justin!
***** Love these sounds! My personal fave is Austin Powers. Keep up the great work!
***** Totally and completely cool. I love the irony of being able to pencil in a dreaded meeting and then set the alarm to the theme from "Mission Impossible."
***** These sounds rock! Please make more! So many songs and they only take up 40k! Truly amazing... cudos to the author. For anyone having trouble loading these sounds, be sure to load ONLY the System_Midi_Sounds file, not the uninstall one also. It'll nullify the sounds and you'll only be stuck with your regular stock ones, and worst case, not have any sounds at all. Congrats to the author :)
***** This is great I lays use it on my m500 and I get to put on sweet tones (suggestion:use this with interupt me and it is great).
**** Lotta luv! The PalmRat didn't crash my Sony 760. Keep up the work!
**** This is quite good as an SMS alarm for my Tungsten W.. Too bad it can't work with the clock.. Anyone who knows how, it can serve as call ring tone? Thanks!
**** It does not work on my m500 with the alarm clock or a date in the calendar. With MonkeyAlarm I can list and play all sounds. Who can help?
**** I just wish that I could get more of the sounds that I have. I have a concerto, bird, alert, phone, sci-fi and wakeup.
**** Achei ótimo este programa. É uma opção que faltava ao PALM-OS.
**** these are a lot of fun! And I didn't have any trouble installing them from my MAC! And remember, if MACs sucked, Microsoft wouldn't have spent 18+ years trying to clone them!
**** If u rename "System MIDI Sounds.pdb" to "MIDI-Systemsignale.pdb" u are able to use these new sounds @ a german palm.
**** Very good program! Works terrific with my T3. If you can get it to work with World Clock then I'd give you an excellent!
*** It worked perfectly in my Palm IIIxe but not anymore in my new Tungsten E. I wish to change the poor MIDI sounds included in OS5.
** Won't work on my Sony Clie PEGS-360. Is there anything else to do after HotSyncing?
** It doest not work on My M505, and now my other original sounds does not work anymore. What can I do to get it back ?? Please reply.
** I have installed it on my Palm Vx (spanish version). I can only play the new sounds in the preferences menu, but not in the agenda application. Even old sounds can't be listened. What can I do? I have lost the alarm option of the agenda.
* The sounds don't show up in my Visor Platinum.
* It doesn't work on my m100. Am I doing something wrong? I put it into the installer and clicked the sync button, what else is there to do? Email me if you can help. eroberer4u@hotmail.com
* To AUDREY and DAVID and... just delete 'System MIDI Sounds.pdb' and it should work again. Hope it helps.
* It doesn't work on my Palm 505, like Audrey. Now only working with "alarm" sound on every sound. Please explain me what can I do. Thanks, David.
* I cannot get this to work on my Kyocera Smartphone. I don't know if I am doing something wrong or if it is not compatible. Please advise.
* Does not work on my Palm M505. And now my Original Sound Database does also not work. :-(((
* Have tried three different times to hotsync this and eventhough it shows in my palm desktop backup as an installed program, it won't work on my Kyocera Smartphone 6035 running Palm 3.5. Is there something else I have to do or is this not compatible with my palm based phone?
* In my old Palm 100 works ecellent buy in my Palm Zire 71 ... nothing. I try and try with out positive results.
* Help, can not get any of the alarms to work! Any tips! Have a palm 515.
* Worked fine on my m130, but doesn't even show up on my new Tungsten E. Please fix this glitch- these alarms were the best & I miss them!!!
* Worked fine on my m100, but doesn't even show up on my new Tungsten E. PLEASE fix this glitch- these alarms were the best & I miss them!!!
* Does not work on my Kyocera 6035.
* It doesn't work in my m100, too!!
Space Trader v1.2.0
Space Trader is a complex space trading strategy game.
***** TOO GOOD!!! I'd love to see a new version!
***** Ahhh Elite on my PDA. I wish I could stop playing this so I can get other things done! Best PDA game ever.
***** Awesome! Add killer graphics and you can sell this game easily! Way better than all the trading games I've played yet (on any console). Thanks!
***** This is a great game. Not hard to learn, and is addictive. Love it.
***** This is a great game. For those of you old enough to remember, it is very reminiscent of the pre-internet (bulletin board) game called Trade Wars. Works just fine on my Tungsten E.
***** It'z ROCKZ Dude!!! You must have it and never delete it until you or your PDA crash. I'm waiting for the sequel. Hope it's free too :) Gile beneer, TOP abis.
***** Great game. It'll keep you glued to your Palm. I assure you.
***** This game is brilliant. I wish there were new updates. I've spent more time playing this than present-day bleeding-edge games like Doom3 and Far Cry. Absolutely brilliant.
***** Excellent game - still crashes on Treo 600 when you hit special - any fixes?
***** This game is great! It will keep you occupied for hours...and it's great for stop and go play for those traveling often!
***** Anyone with a Palm needs to check this game out. Best strategy game out there. Hard to believe its a full version game and completely free. Excellent work to all who made this!!
***** Well I gotta add my own 5 out of 5 star review. I'm hooked! My only wish is that the game was still being updated. With the new color palms with a lot more juice, it seems like the game could be even better! 6 stars out of 5 anyone?
***** This is the best game ever. I never write an actual review but i couldnt stop myself after i played this game. I mean i stay up till 4:00AM playing this highly addictive game. I'm lovin it.
***** If you have a Clié enable Hi-Res Assist! This makes the text part of the app look better and does not slow down or distort the graphics.
***** BEST GAME EVER!!!!!! - Enough said.
***** Scroll down, there is not a single person that did not love this game. Keep up the good work!
***** I also love this game - far too much time spent playing it... great fun, addictive, and easy to play. Easy 5 stars
***** I have a problem with FreewarePalm: There are not any six star possibilities. I could play all the power from the Li-Ion battery twice in row, and play another 1 or 2 hours on charger. The game lacks Hi-Res, but you won't notice! Looks GREAT on my Clié SJ30. DOWNLOAD this at ANY cost! Beam this to all your friends! THIS-IS-SUPERB!
***** This game allowed me to pass the hot, boring hours while deployed to the Persian Gulf. It provides all the fun and excitement you could ever want from a strategy based game.
***** This game has been my favorite palm game ever since it first came out. A must have for any game lover. I've played this game for hours non stop. I still believe that this is the best palm game there is. I'm still amazed that it's freeware. You need to download it.
***** A must have for anyone that owns a palm... it only needs multiplayer, an ablity to join clans, and the polce force and a bigger galaxy. It's my favorite game for the palm.
***** This game is tremendously fun. Don't pass it up. You will have hours of fun with it. I only wish that it had a few more tasks for you to do while in space or maybe a few more special items to earn. But, as it stands now it is the best freeware game I have played.
***** Love it--but please, please, please fix the crashing problem for the Treo 600 when you hit "specials".
***** Awesome game. I stayed up until 3:00 in the morning playing this game the day I downloaded it. and I have wasted countless hours on it since. Best freeware game I have found yet.
***** Awesome game. I've played it in my handspring visor and worked great. I recently got a Treo 600, however, and the game crashes when you try a special encounter. Kudos to the game's creator (could you fix this problem for treo 600?). Thanks.
***** Found game boxing day 2003 best game ever for the palm spent hours playing idea to carry an on gong adventure.
***** As if another good review needed to be written. Best game out there.
***** I'm speechless.....this is the best palm game ever! Best of all its FREE! Ithink every one who owns a palm should download this FREE priceless game.
***** This game rocks! Very addictve, lots of fun. Great time-waster. :)
***** In fact, this is very best Palm OS game I have ever seen. Excellent playability, bugfree, and very addictive. If you have a Palm, you must at least try it, you will love it :). Simply this is the very best Palm OS mail client. Low memory footprint, bugfree, and first of all, it works excellent :). My poor Handspring 3.1H2 was unable to run Eudora correctly, but this little app can handle everything. A must-have for all Palm users.
***** Truly, the most addictive and enjoyable game available for your Palm. Elite by any other name, Space Trader gives you the open-ended freedom to do whatever you like. Of course, like Elite the game can become repetitive once you are so rich that your equipment makes you untouchable, but the process of getting there is so fun that, even after finishing it, you will still go back afresh for another go. Commercial quality software for free you can’t get better than that.
***** This game is a very great game. It is my favorite game ever. I had it on my m100 and it worked great. I accidently deleted it and I was happy to find it on this webite. DOWNLOAD THIS GAME!!!!!!I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
***** Great game. Spent many flight (and boring meetings) playing this wonderful game.
***** I think that this is by far the greatest game for the palm OS since chess!
***** An excellent game. The only thing I find this lacking to is Tradewars from the old BBS days. If we could just do all this trading and own and build up planets (defenses, tradeposts, etc...) it will be everything that my favorite game from old would have. On its own it stands pretty dern well. Play as a nice guy on an easy level to get the hang of it then try being a nasty pirate on the hardest level!
***** Great game. Been my fav for a long time.
***** Addictive. Played thru the whole game as a nice guy, and got a score of 40%. Now I gotta go back and find out what I missed. A great game.
***** I have completed this game last year.. Now I'm back hoping there're new add-ons. This is truely the greatest game! This rocks!
***** The best game for Palm OS I have ever played. After five minutes you are addicted for many days.
***** I love this game. The one thing that disapoints me is that there is not enough missions. Other than that I spend my whole school day on it.
***** Have spent far too many hours playing this game, and now its even better. Lord help me!
***** Fantastic game. Only download if you are prepared to waste lots of hours playing it. Especially if you remember Elite on the BBC Computers. Keep adding and updating please!
***** Great game! Hey Chris Hunt I know you see this.
***** I hate this game - I spend too much time playing it. It is fantastic!
***** The best ever, this is a return to the good old days of Elite. Its fantastic fun with long term appeal. Can't wait for the next installment.
***** The best game for Palm just got better. Looks beautiful and plays like a dream. Hours of fun love the system tracking and the Portable Singularity. Now I can beat those pesky aliens to Gemulon!
***** Oh my god!! what a game, beatifull in everything, i use to play privateer on my pc and this game is excatly the same for the palm, a must have for any space fan outhere.
***** Superb ! A must have for a strategy player !
***** I never write reviews for software but I have to mention how specacular this game is for the Palm. It is unbelievable that it is freeware because it is better than any other game I have seen for the Palm. It works flawlessly on my Handspring Deluxe Visor. :-) I was once addicted to "Elite" and now I have found its Palm clone. Best game for the Palm. Period.
***** It has somehow got even better...
***** I LOVE this game! It is the best game I have ever run across. I am so glad to hear that it has finally been expanded. That has always been its only downside, that it doesn't go on forever!!
***** Best palm game ever! Period!!! It rocks.
***** This is by far the best game I have ever played for my Palm. It's amazing that this game is offered for free. You can do so much in this game, and the galaxy is absolutely enourmous. I love that there is no time limit, so you can just keep on playing. If you're tired of living the honest life, start running guns and narcotics. If the cops are harrassing you too much, blast them to pieces. And if you're tired of getting tossed in jail, give up the hard life, and go towards a more honest existance. Tired of trading...become a bounty hunter and seek and destroy all those pirates that are out there. Or if you can't find a good bargain, then just get your cargo for free. All it takes is a few laser beams and a protective shield, and you can blast away at fellow traders and plunder all of their goods. If you don't get this game, you're a fool.
***** The game is the perfect thing ive been looking for. Even after downloading a ton more of games it's still my fav. Amazing Five Star Rating!!!
***** I have downloaded a ton of freeware to my palm and not only is this the best game, it is the best piece of software. Great documentation in help menu's, bug free, addicting nature, wonderful complexity for the price and overall just great fun. I don't know if the author is planning an upgrade but I would kill to get my hands on it.
***** Awesome game, reminiscent of privateer.
***** This is by far the tightest game ever created for a palm pilot. Ive had it for almost a year and can still get wrapped up in it for a few days. If you have a palm, you need this game!
***** There is Halo for X-Box. Perfect Dark for N64. And GTA3 for PS2. And now, Space Trader for PDA. This game rocks!!! Sometimes I have doubts about playing it, but when I get started, I can't stop. Remarkable entertainment. If there is another Space Trader coming out, there should be job opportunities, just a suggestion...
***** This game is great!!! If you disable the ship graphics, you can play it anywhere and look like you're working on something important--like your job. Or enable the graphics and have fun. I can't stop!!
***** Man, this game is f*** addictive!!! I love it!! Hats off to Pieter Spronck (the developer) - this game rox!
***** Well since the palm have been looking for games ....... Thanks that I found this one a very good gooood one the best congratulations to the maker..
***** Great Game! It takes up way too much of my time.
***** This is by far the greatest palm game I have ever played the only thing that would make it better would be if it had more quests and surprises.
***** WOW!!! Stayed up to 3am playing the first night I downloaded the game. All I can say is "MORE, MORE MORE...GIVE US MORE!!
***** Great game. The best game money could buy, but for free! It don't stop to be funny for a very long time. Works almost without mistakes on my m100. If somebody finds it too difficult, i am recomending similar, but easier game Solar wars. After playing this one, you will be quickly able to understand all rules of space trader. Good piece of job. Thanks to the author.
***** Cool game , I wish for more quests...
***** An excellent game for the palm... You will spend hours playing this. A must have game ... 2 thumbs up... Thank you folks and keep up the good work. Tumblweed.
***** Just like escape velocity for the Mac.. it's SWEEEEET!!!!!!!
***** Elite for the palm, combat is turn based. Definitely the best game overall for the Palm that I've come across. Only drawback is no randomly generated quests, so only 2 or 3 replays before you've seen it all.
***** Great to see the old Elite game get a new life on the Palm OS. I really miss the auto-docking tune though :-)
***** WOW!-WOW! This is the best game in the palm gaming history and I dont beleive that it is free it is so AWSOME you have got to get this game for anyone that is out there!!! COOLEST!!
***** Excellent game. A little bit of a learning curve, but after 20 minutes you can play well. Very addicting.
***** This game rocks.
***** I have recently gotten a palm 3xe and found this site. This game is about the best game I've ever seen considering it is on the palm!
***** If you liked Tradewars 2000 when BBS's were still around then you will LOVE this game!
***** One of the absolute best games I have ever played! Even without color! Kudos to the developer(s)!
***** Thoroughly addictive, fast paced. Thoroughly the best PalmOS game I have seen!!!
***** This kind of reminds me of Escape Velocity. Hmm...
***** This game makes my poor AAA batteries suffer: I tend to play it in the evenings with the backlight on! Best game i have found for the palm!!
***** The best game I have fond yet for the palm!! Thanks.
***** None above! None on the side! WOO-WOO-WOO!
***** THE GAME WAS UNBELIEVEABLE, KEEP 'EM COMING.
***** VERY VERY VERY GOOD GAME !!! You MUST test !!!
***** This is the best game I have played on the Palm...And it FREE! I have played it many times and will play it many more. I recomend this game to everyone!
***** Bellissimo!!
***** *SPOILER* 'Tribbles' is actually taken from a Star Trek episode named 'The trouble with Tribbles'. The script was from David Gerrold who also wrote the fantastic 'Harlie' series. In the old 'Elite' game, Tribbles caused a lot of havoc by cluttering up your HUD etc. In Space Trader, if you get stuck with tribbles and need them to increase, buy food. To kill them (but not all, although an Alien trader may buy all of them from you), carry NARCOTICS (i think...). Dead tribbles turn into FUR which can be sold at most places. Only prob is you'll get in trouble with the Law.
***** I rarely write game reviews, but I've got to say this game is unbelievably awesome. More games like THIS should be written for the palm! Top Notch Freeware.
***** This is so great I got in trouble because of it...my boss saw me playing it in the office! Highly recommended! Two thumbs up! Download it now!!! It'll help you think!
***** This game is highly addictive... and fun! However, I need some help or tips.... What are 'trebbles'? Anyhow, this IS the best PalmOS game I've ever see.
***** Easily the best 'game of the year' for the palm and could be the best game of the 'decade'! Highly addicting and playable! Can't wait for the sequel.
***** I'm hooked :) I can't stop playing.
**** Cool game. Took me back to the good old days of "Frontier." Can't wait for any updates and the next version. Recommend it to any and all.
**** Good game.. reminds me of Elite.. which i enjoyed playing a lot.. this is a good one to play over those long bus trips to work.:) For all those out there, i recommend you try Void. very much like Elite but for your Palm :)
**** Wonderful game! Wish it was more challenging, though.
**** Very good game. Me and my friend play it all day long, at school. Could use a few more quests and surprises though.
**** This game epands from the simple Dope Wars into something so much more complex and fun. But when I say complex, I don't mean you have to be a rocket scientist or a stock market wiz to play the game. Now you've got a space ship, add-ons for it (Boosters, Guns, Shields, Co-piolot) then after that ship gets boring go ahead and trade it in for a new one.theres no particular time limit or profit goal. On your way to a different docking bay you'll run into traders pirates and police that you can fight to get a higher wanted level, (while still buying and selling goods to make a profit). But what would make the game a complete dream-come-true is system if you could save your progress and not worry about getting busted by the cops and having to restart the entire game. This game works just and well with gray scaling graphics as it does with color. and isn't slow at all; it worked fine on my basic of basic M105 and if it works for that it'll work for anything.
**** Very nice game. But it reminds me of the good old Elite game back on early PCs and Z80. The Z80 Elite was far more complex and powerful in only 48k+16k. Compared to that this is a mammoth. Else, it is very nice done.
**** I love the game, but it's a complete knock-off of the popular pc/mac series "Escape Velocity".
MyCheckbook v5.3.7 Build 13
A mulitple account, electronic personal checkbook with an intuitive interface that allows quick entry of your financial transactions.
***** Very simple once you play with it after a while. I've only used a couple of days and I'm already recomending it to my friends. I'm always trying to find easy, convenient everyday applications that I can use on my palm and this is definitely one since I (we all) make daily transactions. Easy to enter and catergorize transactions and instantly balances your checkbook right there on the same screen. Really like the feature where you can check off which transactions have cleared your account. A must for me. Best of all, it's free.
***** I have been using this application since 2002 and I must say it's wonderful. I don't even use a standard checkbook any more. It's great and would recommend it to anyone who wants a simple yet effective checkbook application.
***** This is a great software. Since they updated the version with fixes for the other issues, it hasn't crashed my palm since. I would highly recommend this!
***** I have tried many financial software programs and I have found that this program is by far the best that I have used. My checking account is always balanced. Thanks for providing such a great program for free.
***** I love this doohickey already and I've only been using it for an hour. I just got paid, paid two bills online, bought something with my debit, and kept track of it all without losing a beat with this app. I can't believe it's freeware. Carl Quick, you are a god.
***** What can I say that has not been said. My bank account has never been this organized before. I find this program to be indispensible. Thank you very much.
***** This is a great application. I had to reset my Palm because I failed to recharge it in time and the application was deleted a few days ago. I couldn't live with out it. Thank you so much for making such a great application.
***** I can't find anything out there that is better or has option then this application. It keeps track of my checkbook better then I can.
***** This is probably THE best program I've ever used. I have never been good about balancing my checkbook and now I'm a complete wiz.
***** This is definitely an excellent freeware! Still can't believe it's free.
***** This is a great piece of freeware. Perfectly stable, not to bad on memory, and does what it's supposed to do. This is on my calculator button and will stay there. It's never been easy to keep track of all those swipes until now. Thanks Carl.
***** I love this program! I'm able to keep my cash, checking, savings, and work budget accounts with me at all times. I can't believe that such a wonderful program is freeware. I'd gladly pay for this application.
***** Simple, functional and stable. Just what I was looking for. Thank you.
***** This is a super application! Can't believe it'll remain freeware. And Carl's quick to answer questions... unbelievable!
***** Easy to use and best of all... FREE ... you definately are the man carl. You have totally organized "all" my accounts. I rate this beyond excellent. it's "OUTSTANDING"
***** Well, what can I say. This is the best CheckBook program ever made for Palm. I am using Version 3.5 and don't plan to update this program. "If it's not broken don't fix it." It is simple intuitive and free. What more can you ask. Oh by the way. I don't get bounced checks anymore. Thanks for the great program.
***** Helped me keep track of my checkcard so I didn't overdraw my account!
***** I swear to g-d this FREE software helped me lose $10K in credit card debt. Never before have I had any clue what was in my checking account at a given time. I have saved so much in late fees and bounced check fees that I have been able finally to erase my debts without earning more money! WOW! Thank you!!! You have my eternal gratitude, and I'm not exaggerating when I say that folks like you who develop great tools and give them away for free restore my faith in humanity! There's hope after all.
***** OOOH WOOW!! That's all I gotta say about this amazing program! Thanks SOO much for creating this! Cuz like seriously, I've been SOO horrible keeping track of all my expenses and accounts that I'd always get charged for overdrafting or what not! Thanks again!! I can't belive that its a freeware program either! Hehe I think that you deserve something!!! :) Lemme know if I can pay you some how through via pay pal or something! :) Thanks again!!!
***** Ditto to what everyone else has said. This is a great program. Very versatile and easy to use. I love that it keeps track of my direct deposit payroll. It has replaced my old "paper" check register. Thanks!
***** I can't believe this is freeware. I have been using it for a couple of months and it works flawlessly. Great job and thank you very much!
***** I love this program. It is very fast and easy to keep my checkbook up to date because very few graffiti strokes are needed: it remembers your previous payees and automatically sequences the check numbers.
***** Amazing little program! I became hooked back on version 3.3 & with each update it just keeps getting better & better!What I find even more amazing is how open you (the "Quickster") are to suggestions & criticism, even inviting them, in order to further perfect your program! And it'z ALL FOR FREE!!! Thank you ...
***** Hello, I have been using this application for a few months now and I think it is great, I can now keep track of all my accounts, all in one spot (chequing, Visa, MC, RRSP, etc). I have come across a couple of problems though - whenever I try to delete checked transactions from my chequing account I get an error (DataMgr.c,Line:3688,Null dbID passed) what is that? I have also ran out of room in my TO: list and the payments feature does not seem to work properly, when I want it to automatically transfer funds from one account to a different one, on a specific day each month. Also, my Balance and my Actual never seem to be correct and I have to keep adjusting the Actual, but that one is probably just an error on my part along the way. Besides that though, It is great!!! Thank you :)
***** One of the best palm software.
***** I love this program, I've been using it for 5 months now and I've had zero problems. It's great too b/c it works with all systems.
***** One more rave review! I love this free application. But I also had a problem setting up my payments. Setting up paycheck worked fine, though. Even without that, I still think this is a very useful program. Thanks!
***** I love this program and have been using it for several months. I love the updates. I have it programed on my to do list button. A suggestion for future updates is to have an automatic payment feature that allows the user to program automatic withdrawls on predetermined days of the month, for automatic transfers, etc. Thanks and keep up the good work.
***** Excellent program, easy to use. Keep working.
***** Very interesting program to use... I have been using it for the last month now on my Visor Edge, and for the most part it has been all good... Setting payments up through the debit card was a hassle, but worth the wait... Everything that the program has to offer is good. But, there is a bug with the auto check numbers, and I have to type them in manually, but that is all good.... I dont mind that.. Just wish there were a way to edit the forms of transaction to what I use here... Thanks for the great program...
***** I have been using it for all my transactions for 7 months now! I created my own names to correspond with the transaction under 'To'. Very versatile! Allows for every nuance of money transactions. Although, they should create a category called 'ePay' for those of us who pay bills on-line. Note: There is a transaction called 'ePurchase'.
***** If anyone is having a problem with some function in MyCheckbook I would appreciate it if you sent me an eMail so I could help resolve the problem.
***** This is one of the best things on my Palm. I've been using this software for the past month and it's great.
***** This is the best I've seen. Auto-fill fields, balance summaries of all accounts, all I could ask for is a tad more versatility: transfers to and from cash accounts (now you have to make two entries to show deposit from cash to checking account). Also, I have a problem using the Setup My Payments. Trying to setup a monthly debit from credit card for ISP. Any suggestions?
***** Hi, I'm Che² from the Philippines... i've been using this program for 3 mos. now and i really love it.... More power...
***** I have tryied this excellent program, but I have a problem. When I try to input some ammount, it show me a message that say: "SystemMgr.c, Line: 103, unimplemented". Please, may You help me about this problem?, What I have to do about that?. I hope for you help, Thanks.
***** If I had to list my Top 10 Best and Top 10 Can't Do Without Programs for my Palm m515, this one would definitely rank among the top 2. This program is easy to understand and use and is definitely a must have! I cannot believe that this is freeware!
***** I love this program. You have to get it. For the people that don't like it, you're probably too stupid to figure it out.
***** I've used this program for almost 2-years and it's never done anything other than perfectly keep my checking account info. All this and it's free!
***** This is a wonderful way to keep my checkbook organized.The only thing I would like to see would be a balance after every transaction.
***** Clear interface, multiple accounts support, easy input, categories and sub-total of each categories, periodic payments and income, export to CSV/TAB/QIF. Ideal replacement for the built-in Expense program.
***** This program is absolutely great! It has every option i need to balance my checkbook. A great tool. The only thing is, is when i export the file into Excel, the formatting gets lost. There is no column titles like it says in the manual. But overall, it's great!
***** I love this software !! Sweet interface lots of good features. I wish for sub categories. not just my checkbook but all palm apps.
***** Excellent program. Sugestions for next release:
***** This has completely replaced my paper checkbook register! Simple to use. I can enter my check info while the cashier is processing my check for payment. Keeps track of my debit card at the same time.
***** Again.., a GREAT program. just one suggestion. would be nice to have a line graph to show incline and decline of account status. Maybe it's just cosmetics.., but it would be nice. GREAT JOB!!! (Jason needs to read the manual).
***** I almost died when my visor delux ran out of batteries and I lost this program. It is wonderful. I used to have problems keeping track of how much I was spending but not any more! I love this program!
***** I must correct my prior review. The error was not with the program but my own stupidity. This program is stable, I love the interface and I have come to rely upon it heavily. It has never been so easy to keep track of my accounts. This is a great product and I would highly recommend it to anyone.
***** THIS PROGRAM IS GREAT!!! I never really paid to much attention to where my money went until recently. This program helped me realize that i had over $600 per month that i was blowing on nonsense!!! This was a great help and my financial life is lookin a LOT better. DOWNLOAD NOW!!!
**** This is a wonderful piece of software and it's very useful/ intuitive. I have come to rely heavily on this product. In my opinion, the one feature it lacks, is the ability to sync with Quicken. Otherwise it deserves five stars.
**** As a college student this program is a definite keeper but, my only gripe is when I go to delete a transaction I get a fatal error. And, I had to reset my palm and when I open the application again the balance is not adjusted properly but, the transaction itself has been deleted so I have to adjust my account when this happens. Other, Than that problem I like this program. It is very simply to use and I can view my accounts in different views and categories.
**** This is an amazing program. I just got my Clie SJ-20 and installed this app on it and had my account information entered in it within 30 min. It was that intuitive and easy to use! I'd love to see Transaction Categories for Deposits so I can track different income sources and csv, qif import capabilities but this app rivals or easily beats ones that you have to pay for. Thanks for a great program!
**** I am driven to download and use because of all the great reviews. I agree with Darrell that a balance after each transaction would be great. I'll definitely use it then.
**** Very versatile program, a must have for those intrested in managing their finances. Many very useful features. One of the best programs created for palm.
**** This is a wonderful program and I have recommended it to a number of my friends. I ran into one problem, but will email directly (mainly because I can't think of what it is at the moment). Thank you for the great program!
**** Well, this is quite an useful tools but somehow the starting cheque number that I entered during creation of my current account differs from what coming out when I selected the next cheque number. I entered 128106 and it came out 62573. I have to revert to entering my cheque number manually rather than have it defaulted.
**** After inputing my datas, I found that all transactions are calculated correctly but when I want to edit my initial amount,there is no way to do it. Perhaps correcting this area and adding a graphical feature would make it a 5 stars from me. Other than this, an excellent product. Thanks.
*** I loaded this software on my TRGPro and fell in love with it right away. After two days of use it now generates a Fatal error everytime I click the icon. I'm glad I did not come to rely on it!
*** When first I know this program, I'm really happy and fell that I've found the right program! BUT Unfourtunate, this program can only handle a very limited number of account, which make this application become useless.
** Seemed to be the best thing out there but it's plagued with errors. Trying to edit the balance works until you make your next entry. Frustrating. The overall format of the program is the best out there however, at the most minimal, a checkbook program must keep records without ANY errors. This is not the case with "My Checkbook". An update that fixes this will guarantee this is the best checkbook program out there.
** When I first got the application I thought is was great. Would enter all my info and balance everything but it's not subracting correctly. I found errors on withdraws I have made. It's not dependable. At least at this point...
* Great program, until it started to subtract incorrectly.
* I get a fatal error when I try to delete an account. I cannot edit the check number. If you schedule a payment in the future, it deducts the amount from your account immediately. I have found that this program is unusable. It has a very nice look and feel, but definitely needs some bug fixes and improvements.
Pocketcity v0.16
Well, just a nice clone of Sim City...
***** Small size, quality and free-ness add up to a six star score with me and my m130! I highly reccomend this, and will beam it to all my friends.
***** Hey guys give it a try. It's already long times ago since some posted it crashed. With the new versions it runs very good on my Clie. Don't be too anxious, a softreset is nothing near the end of the world!!!
***** Works great on my palm v (palm os 3.53). wish the fires wouldn't burn so fast though :)
***** Eccezzionale! un clone del famosissimo SIM di città! oltretutto freeweare, una cosa abbastanza singolare per un programma di successo. Ovvio, non c'è tutto, ma quel che c'è diverte! usatelo!
***** Works great on my Visor!
***** Definitely download v0.9. I have found no bugs everything works (including save and load). It is a great game.
***** It is not only a good game (it works great with my palm V), but also a freeware application (which is not so common in palm's world :-/). If You have some spare kb in Your palm - try it :-)
***** It works great on my visor edge! (PalmOS 3.5)
***** Great game. Tried version 0.5 and liked it, but it lacked some features to make it any good. Version 0.9 is excellent and an essential (FREE) download.
***** Excellent game. Getting fatal error at $400,000 or population of 250,000+. To put out fires pause the game, buldoze everything around it a month the fire is out then rebuild.
***** This game is good but when I go to load a game it opens up a new game.
***** I don't know what everyone is complaining about, this game works great for me. It counts my population fine (on my Visor Pro). I think the problem may be with the user. When I first played the original game (ahh..the good old days) I never had a population till I figured out there had to be power and water supplied to the zones. Also, there must be a road 3 blocks away for someone to move in. I think this game is great, though on the greyscale version, the contrast can tend to be a little bit too dark.
***** This game is excellent! I am always checking for updates!
***** Great game. Needs fire departments and ability to adjust budget.
***** I bought the official Simcity for palm and I must say that this is two times better and more fun to play. I like the new additions of the city defence tanks, police,and fire trucks. I have two cities, Athens and Moscow. Athens got burned down by a fire dragon. I wish there was a way to turn off disasters and add some sounds.(like the official simcity for palm) To the reviewer below; your city has to have 12 areas of each zone. Use coal power over nuclaer power. And don't build a lot of roads, just enough to circle the zones. Great game!! Thanks mr. developer.
***** Definitely 5 stars. In fact I've tried the original SimCity first and guess what. I like pocket city more. It is a little hard to deal with some of disasters (fire of course :)), but with practice I can handle it. Like others I'm willing to see some other buildings that matter, but that’s not so critical. Excellent work, thank you.
***** Enjoy the game alot...I get several Fatal Exceptions on my M505. Tried slowing down the 'developements' but it still happens.
***** This is the crapiest piece of crap that's ever been craped out by a freeware author. Don't get me wrong... I LOVE IT!!! My population worked fine. I LOVE THE ADDED WATER PUMP AND PIPE AND ALSO THE DISASTER OPTIONS... BUT, I got my city to be very big... and once it reached a certain year and population it crashed. I lost everything! And not just the city! I lost everything on my palm!! I want this game! I need this game! (Addicted!!) But I'll wait for a better version... I must add that this version is MUCH better from the others... You have fixed almost every bug. Keep working on it... Please Keep it free!!!
***** (Of course I rate my own game "excellent") - Stephen: I'd like to see that Pocket C game ;) Anyway, the hardest part of game designing is actually balancing the game - how often disasters happen, how much damage they do ... not to mention the economics of the game. I enjoy reading the reviews here that say "how do I do this and that" and "the fire spread too quick" - every time I hear that, I go back to the source and try to adjust the balance or adds some lines to the (sparce) documentation in the downloaded package. But some times I can't help but think if people are just bitching because they cannot beat the game the first time? Anyway, as pointed out earlier by someone else, this program is still in development and therefore isn't quite compareable to the original sim city yet, even though I've stole the fundamental design from it and will try to add some personal touches to it. Again, thanks for the "bitching" :)
***** Awesome game. I havent had one reset error on my 505 the only problem is that you cant save a game, then start a new one then save it and go to the other one.
***** Good idea. Freeware - ok. And where is hospital, policestation, firestation, schools, train, funparks, subway, catastrophes, terrein editor, more plants, infrastructure, hydrostructure, cars, tunnels, highway, bridges, etc...
**** Nice! Fun, especially when I finnaly got too lazy to check if that fire had started in the middle of the city and it burnt down except for the little square I had been looking at. :) The new version looks nice, but gets a Fatal Error on startup on a Visor Deluxe. :/
**** Tried ur pocketsim... but how come there is nobody there? My population remains zero throughout the game...
**** I can tell this will be a great simcity clone. I'm running the latest version on a handspring visor deluxe, and it's working fine (although the map feature, as mentioned, is disabled). However, I can't seem to get the water pumps and such to work. I know the water pump needs to be near the water source, but for some reason, none of my zones can get access to the water (nor can the pump). Any insights?
**** Overall good game. The fires spread a little too quickly. It wasn't as hard as I thought to get the hang of it. It needs some more building options though. Like schools and libraries. I really like the game.
**** Cool and FREE version of sim city. Fun to play, even tough it causes fatal errors by 2025... Still, a very good game.
**** This release works perfectly on my m505... However, I do not know what release this is. It says v0.9 on this page (freewarepalm), but sf.net lists it as v0.8. Regardless, most of the complaints below are old both in time and in versions, and it now works.
**** After a few minutes of play I was making big money and had a nice little town of over 20,000 residents. I have no idea what the Australian fire does though. No crash on my HandEra. Lacks documentation, so unless you've played the PC version, you might be lost. But hey, for free, what do you want?
**** Good and fun game. Everything seems to work ok, although 2 or 3 times, the settings option caused a fatal exception. Also, once you build a city and connect power and water lines to everything, making money is a breeze. Also, lowering budgets doesn't seem to affect population happiness. And once you start the game, if you try and turn on automated disasters, it will stay off and you can only create your own disasters. And ONE BIG NEGATIVE IS this things absolutely KILLS battery power. I have an M130 and after about an hour, battery was 3/4 used. Good game, but can get boring after a while and replay factor is low. But what do you expect from freeware?
**** Great game!!!! But it could be almost perfect if when the city gets very big it goes to the fatal error, I have a sony clie (wonderful!!) So I have not problem with the speed so I wish more variety of models for the residential, comer & industrial sector, is boring to have to see the same types over the entire city, and place the water ducts below the soil!!! And when do you think you will to give us a new upgrade? Please I love this game!!!!
**** It neat to make your city, its like making up your school, you decide what to do, what to make, how much of everything you want.
**** Like everyone else said, it's a great game! Except, for the usual complaint...locks up when city gets big...very slow (Actually, slow to begin with on my Treo 90)...no help menu but still cool if you've played similar games like simcity. I can't wait for the new version, so hurry up will ya! Other than that this is a must have game. PS Please keep it free. :)
**** I have a Visor Deluxe too, and the "Map" menu item crashes mine too, but you use the up/down/address book/todo to move around. I think "map" is a random map generator. If you run OS 3.1, stay away from the map menu item, otherwise enjoy!
**** There is a warning screen about running it on OS 3.1 but I'm doing it anyway. Using Handspring Visor Deluxe, no problem so far. Map doesn't work but I can still scroll around with the buttons. THIS IS STILL IN BETA!! Don't forget that. Something does need to be developed to fight fires. My entire city got wiped out by one. I rebuilt with space between different parts of the city and it didn't help, fire followed roads and power lines to other parts. Good game with a lot of potential. BE PATIENT EVERYONE!
**** Nice- Actually figured out how to gain money for the first time in any SimCity on my first game, having played numerous games of the origional for the Mac. Using a Visor Deluxe, and the only problem is as mentioned by the author the map dosen't show up- small loss for me since my cities are so small. And, I suppose in things I'd want- First would be the ability to trigger disasters :), then the additional buildings and features mentioned previously might be nice. This has secured a position on my palm for quite a while at least.
**** Well maybe it's just ME, but I can't get any money! I can't figure it out.
**** I got the pocket city nearlylive version for Sony. Nice game, but unfortunatly it doesnt count population, although I created many cities with all features. Any hints ?
**** Very very good but if you have and M 105 or older don't even bother unless you have a whole lotta patients because it is very slow especially when you start getting a really really big city. I was able to see and understand everything okay even on my greyscale screen. Most people are having trouble grasping the whole power and plumbing thing but read the directoins a few times then you'll probibly understand it.
*** Seems like a good game on my IIIxe...but, the population stays at zero. The buildings seem to get built though I didn't see any cars moving on the roads. I (once) noticed there was a pictorial quick lookup on 'stuff to build', which was a nice touch, but I didn't know how to get it back. Documentation would be very helpful. In the next version the author should try to make the program completely bug free (just my opinion), but Please Keep it free.
*** Tried version 0.05 on Palm Os 3.1 and it would not run as said it needed Palm Os 3.5. Pity it looks like it could be fun ...
*** It's a good game and very funny but I've got problems with saved games, I can't start a game after another saved without deleting what I done in the first. I've got some screen problems with sometimes reset of my Palm m500.
*** This version is a step back, definitely not a way to go. Why are "build" items not in pull down menu anymore? The controls became much more complicated. Hope it will get better.
*** A good start to a Sim City clone. It has nearly all the basic features, but a few things would be good to alter. The water and power lines cannot cross each other or be on the same square! This seems rediculous considering when the 'water' thing was introduced in Sim City 2000 it was an UNDERGROUND system and did not impede on any above ground structures. There were also water pipes under the roads (as there are in reality) so that wasn't a problem either. This makes it very difficult to get power and water to all zones, which I didn't think was a problem in the original game, so I think that should be reconsidered. (Underground transportation was a really cool new feature with Sim City 2000 too).
*** Looks good but as 'Daune' says it wont run on the m505, I wont be trying.
*** Nice response Zakarun... you made a good effort And if you keep on tweekin it it'll be as good as sim... This Bitchin' as you call it is just us letting you know that we love haveing a simclone game... (I don't intend on paying $25 for the original! :-) Oh and the pocket c game - anytime you wanna take a look email me! Fix these probelms and this'll be a very cool freeware game to have on any respectable Palm OS!
*** I keep trying each new version of this game. I have a Visor Deluxe running Palm OS 3.1. This is the first version that didn't give me a fatal error on launch. But when I tried to open the map (I guess this is how you move around) I did get a fatal error and had to reset again. Hopefully this game will get better. Hope the updates come a little bit closer together though.
*** For some reason, my population stays at zero even though I have a power plant, water pumps, pipes, power lines, RCI stuff, and roads.
*** OK. By its' concept is very complete compare with Sim City Classic, but its hard to scrool the city and it consume very much of PDA battery.
*** The game works great and is fun. But there's still a lot of work to do, for exemple there's fire destroying your city and you can't build a firestation...
*** Plays well but after I built a large city...over 400K people and lots of cash the program locked up...after soft reset it fatal errored and forced me to do a hard reset - that killed the fun..fix this and you have a winner!
** It looks good but even with firestations, a single fire or meteor will completely destroy an entire city, which is silly.
** I have a Sony Clie SJ33, and it made my PDA froze. I didn't lose any of my data, still don't install it.
** This is a great game, but it's just not challenging enough. There's not enough to make you keep trying, which really kills the repeat playability. It's just too easy to keep a successful town going. Also, after I installed Pocket City I couldn't delete or beam any apps without a system crash. That was pretty frustrating, to be sure! On a positive note, though, this game has some nice graphics and a lot of potential. I don't think it'd take THAT much tweaking to add some more challenge to this game. I expect the devloper's still working on it... I hope so...
** If it worked, the game would be cool. The population stays at zero so the whole thing is shot.
* Well.. As i see so many other saying , NOT too try this.. I wont.. But it look damn good on the screenshot.
* Will not run on my Visor Deluxe. I always get a fatal error. Now I can't even delete the #@% thing.
* My population stayed at zero so once I spent the cash I was given the game was over.
* I'm goin' with "Dan"
* DO NOT INSTALL THIS GAME.
* Just by reading the other users reviews. I have decided not to even try to load it to my PDA. Looks like it could be fun.
* The only reason I give it a bad rating is because it doesn't work on my Zire 21. The up and down scroll work fine but the left and right don't work. The left button (calender button) doesn't scroll left, it brings up the calender. The right button (address button) doesn't scroll right, it scrolls left.
* First of all to all the complainers out there-this is a freeware game so don't expect it to be like the real thing... If you need to make money build residentals and allow them to become those hotels (I think :-) you'll make alot of money!!! One reason I rated this unacceptible is because it claims to be a good clone of sim city but the truth is that I made a better useing pocket c myself... It is a good start but hopefully it'll get better than what it is.... I am very good at this game.... I make in excess of 1 million dollars...
Accounts Manager v1.0
Accounts Manager is a program to keep track of your expenses, you can handle as many account as you want, each account can have a lot of expenses recorded and each expense can have a description for its own.
***** Great!! To be perfect, there should be an "ALL-accounts-description" (a summary of all accounts descriptions together) and some sort option in the balance field. A must have.
***** It is running beautifully well on my M105 with OS3.5 as claimed.
***** Honestly I have been using this sofware for 2 years and i still can't find any other which could trash this account manager 1.0 ....BRAVO!!!
***** An excellent software to keep track of expenses and accounts balance. Only used it for 2 days and a;ready very impressed by it. Thanks.
***** Exellent software. Easy to use, abundance of features and does not lag like most softwares. Far by the best finance programme i've used. well done!
***** I have used this program for about 3 months. I have been a happy camper. Except: 1. Gradually as the entries were growing, the response was getting slowere and slower. 2. There is no equivalent desktop version. 3. I couldn't figure out how can I export the data to use in any other PC programs (CSV/Text/dbf). Hope someday, someone will make a desktop equivalent, defenitely featuring provision to synchronise both (as is in the built-in expense program).
***** Excellent program, Thankyou.. and FREE also!! Look no further for a personal account/expense manager that is simple and efficient to use. Permits creation of accounts and category, stores times/dates/recurring events. Shows various balance info. Simple Graph/reports. Allows your palm password to protect from prying eyes. HTML manual included in download zip. Works perfectly with my Handspring Visor Edge/Palm OS 3.52.
***** Seven Months Use so far. Created almost two dozen account to show where money goes(doctors,dentists,grocery,utilities). Bought my Prism ($150/new) after getting tired of bouncing checks due to impossible task of juggling a long commute&strained finaces. Using this app has saved my ass(ets). THANK YOU!
***** Just what i need. download this. you won't regret it!
***** Very good program but personally I prefer "My Checkbook" by Carl Quick. It does the same thing, I enjoy the layout better and has not given me any trouble for the past 1 1/2 years I've had it installed in my Palm m505.
***** Brilliant software.... Kudos to the developer! Zimply Vonderful!
***** Very useful, fast and small.
***** Very simple and integrated accounts, very excellent, two tumbs up, next version please...
***** I've tried several programs like this, most of them shareware, and none of them were as good and easy to use as this! The program is simply just what I need! Fast, easy to use and I get full control over my money!
***** Excellent, very useful and worthly to download among all free money management program. Expecially useful for the beginner to understand more about account system. I am expecting the new version to release.
***** I was rather impressed by the simplicity and functionality of this program. I'm religious about tracking every expense I make, since I'm in Sales and this program really helps. I've been meaning to write a quick 'thank you' message to the author of this freeware program. The program is very easy to use and I like the fact that you can create different 'accounts', and simply add and subtract from them, while being able to note the details of each transaction. I use the program to track the funds in my Cash, Checking, MoneyMarket and Emergency accounts. Once a week I take this information and enter it into Money 2002. I HIGHLY recommend using this 'small' and VERY useful cash tracking/management program. Thanks!
***** Excellent software for my M515. Just what I needed... and to think that its FREE! Great work! Bravo!
***** A wonderful and useful program. Works well with my Palm Vx. Allows a very flexible way for me to create my own account. The part I like best the the cross reference between accounts. Thanks to the author of this program. Keep up the good work.
***** Really great program. I don't have to do the maths anymore!
***** This is the best free money management program I have ever used for the Palm! No more expensive apps!
***** This is the best free app ever!!! It keep my life organized. Thank you for the author.
***** This program is simply the best Money Manager available for the Palm. It works Great, takes up very little space and the price is right. Mr Torres could charge something for this and I would PAY!
***** Excelente programa!! Felicidades a nuestro orgullosamente mexicano autor. Funciona bien en una palm m100.
***** "Accounts Manager" is very usefull, it does everything that I need, fast and simple. 5 stars. I have a Palm Zire and "AccountsMgr" works just fine on it. Suggestion: when showing report info show have the balance of all accounts, to se how much you are above or below the "red line". Palm should had this app as standart instead of "Expense". José, keep the good work.
***** The program is very complete and capable but if you have any .PDF manual please sended to me ASAP... I really want to get the most from the aplication. Thanks.
***** Fantastic tool. Using it for last 3 months. Now I know exactly how my I have in balance and where do I spend. If you add "Export" I could archieve old data to PC (for reference) and delete from Palm.
***** Simply Fantastic! Does all the money management for u. Highly recommended. Thanks for the great job!
***** I think your Account Manager program is excellent. Couple of observations:
***** Very useful program - just what I was looking for - but could be improved by adding EUR and user-selected currencies. Then it will be perfect.
***** Well thought-out, flexible, efficient and intuitive user interface. One small thing I found was, when you go back and change your date/time on an entry, it automatically adds a decimal digit?? But didn't hurt anything though. Overall nicely designed, and I like it!!
***** Very good!!! Easy to use and very reliable.
***** Very usefull program. Who can help me, how can I export data to memo?
***** It's great!! works great with my palm m150. It does exactly what the review said here. I downloaded bunch of financial helper softwares, and now I delete them all EXCEPT acount manager, this is great, a must download, no regret, if you wanna keep track on how you spend money, and not wondering where are those money gone each month, go download it now!
***** Thank's for this great program, its the best I ever downloaded. P.S. waiting for the upgrade!
***** Gracias... No puedo decir mas, esta herramienta es realmente lo que estaba buscando. GRACIAS!!!
***** LA aplicacion es excelente , en mi negocio yo uso el quicken para PC y tu aplicacion funciona casi de la misma manera , pero con la facilidad de llevar todas mis finanzas en mi palm M 505. Muchas felicidades Jose Luis.
***** This is the best one I have ever used.
***** This is very useful and nice application.... But I need export to CSV function so I can transfer the data of each month to a memo file. I have read the next version would support this functionality. May I know when the next version be released? I am looking forward to having it.
***** José Luis... mucha felicidades... el software esta super de todos los que he bajado y usado este es el mejor de todos gracias mgg.
***** Great program. Was looking for a program to keep track of checking and my loans to my son's. This does the trick. Works well on my palm IIIc. Installation was a snap and it's simple to use.
**** Ottimo programma.Da provare! Solo pochi appunti: nei resoconti mensili si perdono tutte le voci analitiche; non è possibile correlare più di due account contemporaneamente (es: le spese giornaliere alla Carta di Credito e questa al Conto corrente).
**** Very good!! Is there a way that one can view accounts by month.
**** Great. I got this up and running in no time. Good tool and its free!!!
**** I have been using it since it was released. Like it very much until lately... ** on my Palm OS4.1 (m505), all the re-occurent expenses starting to screw up with the re-curring period...seem like cannot handle more than 5 re-curring expenses on the same account ** on my palm OS5.2.1 (Treo600), it would crash my system every time. So, I guess is not supported in OS5... =( Regardless, is still my favourite freeware ever!!
**** Easy 2 navigate & user friendly.I'd like to see improvement that enables exporting data to spreadsheet or word files.
**** Brilliant program. Has everything one could imagine to neatly record and track personal expenses. The export to memopad feature is eagerly awaited. Also, it would be great if the report could generate a total of the different account balances. Good work.
**** Great program, really functional, pity it won't work on OS 5, upgrade please!!
**** It's a nice program which works great (I like the zooming function!), but it's absolutely not utilizing the colour support on newer palms.. The countries are so dark that they look black, the ocean is very very light blue, and the non sun illuminated area of the earth is black dots, not a grayscale layer which would be much cooler. Hope you make the colour version a bit cooler, but thank's for a nice proggy anyway.
** I seems to be so good! But when I try to run it from my Palm III (with Palm OS 3.3), it comes out with an error message reqesting for Palm OS 3.0. So, can anybody tell me what's wrong???
** It does not work on Palm OS v3.0 and below as oppposed to the claims of running on any OS.
** This program LOOKS great in the documentation, but like an earlier poster, I can't run in on my Visor. What's the deal?
** Worked excellently for two weeks, then started to delete existing entries for each new entry (I guess there must be a limit), leading to my bankruptcy, breakdown of my marriage and meantal illness.
** It looks good, but I can't run it from my Palm IIIx, I have v3.3 and it says that requires v3.0, what's happend????
** Tried to run it on a Handspring Visor deluxe, the app would not run it complained it needed os ver 3.0 !! the visor has 3.1 !! Whats Up ?
* Same as above. Wont work on a Handspring Visor. Shame as I would like to try it out.
* Installed on Sony Clie NX60 with Palm OS 5 and would not run.
* Installed on my Tungsten T (Os 5) and it crashed. Pity, after reading the previous reviews.
* Will not run on my nx80v, looks like a good program too.
Digifix v1.2.1
DigiFix will automatically save and restore your digitizer calibration.
***** Thank you, thank you.... after this, I do not need autodigi, redigi, and ondigi softwares.... thanks again. more power!
***** Great soft!! I had to switch my pilot since the old one had a broken diplay so I did a full backup and restore on a new one - including digitizer settings since they're save among all other preferences. It was not possible to calibrate the digitizer without deleting all data - but thank to this proggy it IS possible! Small proggy but can save lot of work and help where the appears to be no solution.
***** Just fixed my mad m100. It works now. It's great, of course, but I'm afraid nevertheless it's the last days (if not hours) of it's life :( The screen is dying slowly but unhesitatingly. What a pity!!! :((((((((((
***** Great software!!! WARNING: Do not use the security feature "Lock & Turn Off..." Once your palm is out of calibration, there is a possibility that you will not be able to write in your password and login. Despite the soft reset, the security screen prevents access to the digifix screen. Like me, I had to hard reset my palm.
***** Fantastic piece of freeware that solved my screen calibration issues in a flash! Good work, guys: your software was a lifesaver!
***** Excellent ! j'ai acheté un palm d'occase mds inclu ! digifix bien moins cher qu'un numériseur neuf... pourvu que ça dure.
***** I have a palm VX handheld. The calibration was off on the top of the screen and on the graffiti area. I downloaded this fix and the probelm was gone in 20 secs.
***** Hi all. This is for people that neither Digifix or DigiE fix/worked on their Palms (like me), I found a way to "fix" the problem regarding the "Mad Syndrome". Apparently Palm Desktop comes with some updates and some programs that are installed automatically and are the ones causing this problem, is either the updates under "C:\Palm\updates" or the programs under ""C:\Palm\Add-on".
***** Thank you for your app!!! I was about to trash my Vx when I knew about your product. I really don´t know why the Palm people do not include it in their software. Live to see Sancho!!!
***** Thanks, I was on my way to trash my 3 years old Palm V due to digitize problem but now it works correct again.
***** Outstanding...My Vx has been real steady until yesterday. I thought I would check the forums on the digitzer probs and came across this. Thanks.
***** You legends! worked a treat problem solved. As we say in Oz, ONYA!
***** The ultimate solution to the mad digitizer syndrome. Use this application together with X-Master and App/Da Launcher 0.7 and Slow Launch 1.0 hacks. All can be downloaded from this site. This way you will be able to set any of the PDA buttons in addition to its original task, to launch DigiFix any time your digitizer goes mad and return to your previous application by means of a simple key stroke. A real life saver for Palm Vx users.
***** WOW!!! I can use my Palm Vx again. It has been months since I was last able to use it. I had given up hope and was looking into getting a new one when I found digifix. Why couldn't Palm make it right in the first place? I was thinking it might have been a built-in obsolescence feature. Anyway, thanks for a wonderful program.
***** I've been bracing myself for a hassle with Palm; I had to re-digitize as many as five times a day, and it was getting worse. Digifix spared me all that, and my Palm works like new. Superb software!
***** PERFECT, this tool rocks, I can finally start using my palm again. :)
***** Thanks for this superb program! I couldn't use my palm because I couldn't tab on the menu to calibrate my Palm. But this program fix my problem.
***** Dopo aver inutilmente tentato di recuperare il mio Palm Vx con un soft reset e quindi un hard reset, il supporto Palm mi ha fornito ciò che davvero ha risolto una situazione che credevo irrecuperabile: I riferimenti al sw Digifix!!! Complimenti davvero e grazie.
***** Eccezionale! Grazie a questo programma ho potuto continuare ad usare il mio Palm V pagato 35 euro ;-).
***** This rocks. Thankfully I asked the Palm customer support person if there was any other solution he'd heard of before I spend $100 to repair my palm. This program saved me that $100 and loss of my palm for a week. Well done!
***** An excellent program-and a perfect solution!!!! Congratulations on providing a sorely needed remedy which could have resulted in me abandoning my Palm V.
***** Fantastic! Soft Reset ruined my digitizer alignment, leaving me no option but hard reset. Once digifix is loaded, you may hear a beep after a few seconds when the general settings page comes up -- you should find that the digitizer works OK now. Thanks for saving my Palm Vx from the dumpster.
***** I bought my Palm m515 just this month. The alignemnt was acting funny so I searched for some info. to help. Digifix was easy to install and I was impressed when it solved my problem quickly.
***** Fantastic! I needed this years ago. I used to have to hard reset (with a broken power button that's anoying.) Now I've set it to launch when I press the "To Do" button. I need it that frequently. Thanks a lot for this great hack!
***** My Palm vx has been out of alignment for months. A hard reset would allow me to set up but as soon as I did a synchro it went out again. I have had contacts with palm who went through the proceedures to re install everything but always the same thing happened. I got to your sight accidentally, installed digifix 1.2.2 and in three minutes all was fixed! Why was palm support not able to assist? Thanks!
***** This is amazing. Long before I was aware of the 'Mad Digitizer Syndrome', I had to hard-reset twice, soft-reset many times to try to get the digitizer on my PalmVx to work properly on separate occasions. Now I am a happy soul to have found this wonderful program. Great job.
***** My PalmVx touch pad was not functioning properly. I was able to solve the problem normally using the welcome screen. However this time I was not able to access through home button. I tried all trick but failed. I then went on the net to check if other users had similar problems and how they solved it. I found Digifix solution. As I am not too familier with how to go about, it took me some time but finally the software worked wonderfully and the software is free. Thanks a million times and more.
***** My Plam Vx digitizer was completely out of sync, with no menus or silk buttons accessible. Thanks to DigiFix, it is usable again!
***** Excellent, thanks, works great and is easy to use. I bought a used Palm Vx in ebay and could not believe my eyes when I tried to use it. Whatever I clicked did not work. I entered "palm digitizer" in google and found this web site with your tool, and now everything is fine. Thanks a bunch!
***** A miracle! I had pretty much decided to give up on Palm computing before I found this product. Why are the Palm people so stupid that they don't include this as a standard function of the handheld? Thank You Too Much!!!!
***** If you have a Palm V upgraded to 8MB RAM and OS 4.1 but an "incorrect checksum", then you have no choice but to use this. My own handheld was saved from the dustbin with this. Many thanks for making this freeware.
***** Awesome!!! You saved me having to reinstall all my software. I had auto-digi installed and it didnt do anything about this problem, simply installing this app fixed it!
***** This is something!!! You saved my lovely Palm from trash bin, and kept myself from a lot of nasty problems with shift to new PDA. You're the best, folks.
***** Thank you...Thank you...Thank you...Thank you...Thank you...I love you. You saved me from deep trouble!
***** You saved me. I couldn't figure out any fix for my "Mad Digitizer Syndrome" and Digifix save the day. Thanks.
***** My PDA had been in my desk draw for weeks due to calibation problems. Had similar problems to those reported in other reviews. Even started to look at buying a replacement PDA. Came across this site and within the hour my Palm V was back up and running with a complete HotSync and good calibration. This utility is brilliant. Thanks!!!!!!!
***** Great Tool. This just saved me the hassle of calling tech support. A must recommend product!! Thank You to the author!!
***** AWESOME!!!!!!!! Saved me the hassle of technical support, or worse yet , buying a new one. THANK YOU!!!!
***** This is great! Saved me buying a new PDA. I'd suggest you leave the guy who wrote this a tip - I did. http://www.coopcomp.com/tips/.
***** Very useful utility. As with most palm users, the palm is your life and was scared i was going to lose the device, but this utility solved the allignment problem. Kudos to the developer(s) of the utility.
***** I almost giveup my Plam Vx and go to Sony. But thanks to Digifix! I can hardly found any words to express my appreciation!!!
***** Thank you. I cannot express how easy I am when I solve my probelm with your DigiFix. I will tell every plam user I know about this freeware. Thank you again.
***** Thank you! Thank you! I had the same frustration over that the digitizer menu wasn't accessible and a restore even restored the faulty digitizer settings. I said some very hard words for myself about the idiotic behavior of Palm until I found this fabulous software.
***** What an un-believable tool! I tried everything and thought I had lost the use of my Palm V. A little searching brought me to your site, spent a few reading the instructions, and poof!!! It's now working.... Thanks a ton!
***** Excellent tool! Got real frustrated with the Palm vx screen alignment issue. Almost gave up and wana dump the palm into the dustin until I found this amazing tool! A BIG THANK YOU to the developer!
*** Thinks go better with than without but still need hard reset on PalmVx, trying Regidi.
** It was good for it's purpose, but it made the touch screen respond REALLY slowly. I dunno if that's happened before, but I couldn't stand it any long and deleted it. Sorry, but I'd rather just readjust my digitizer once in a while than have to wait a few seconds for one spot to finally be touched.
* I have a Palm V with Palm OS 3.3 and after a softreset the Palm crashes totally. Seems like a bug in DigiFix.
* Installed this and nothing happened. I have a Palm Vx running OS 3.5.0. Digifix installed but I dont think it runs, I cant get my palm to do anything useful after a hotsync or a soft reset. Advise would be appreciated.
Backgammon v3.1b
This is a well featured, lightweight and free Backgammon game.
***** I love it and I play all the time, I just would like to know if you have an upgrade of the program for Palm OS 5. All the best and congratulation,
***** The best freeware backgammon program I've tried! I beat it (I make the double of point than it). Am I a champion? :-)
***** Super cool and never listen those retarded jerk.Cause there is ni cheatand i win every time.
***** Works a treat on my Visor Neo. The AI wins 60% of the games. Great programme and many thanks.
***** Very addictive. Easy to install and use on Tungsten E.
***** Truly awesome! It has slaughtered me every single time (go me!) and so, my personal mission in life is to beat this. This now earns the title of 'Best Distraction in Class'. An IR version would be great so one can play with another (namely so I might actually WIN sometime :). Bravo!
***** This is a GREAT GAME. Fun, addictive, etc. I'm playing in 4-shade on B&W Handspring 2MB and it looks (and plays)terrific!
***** I'm just a little obsessed and cheating at dice is a very very serious accusation. So, I tested the program. It produces a normal distrubution of dice rolls. Accusations of cheating are common in backgammon programs. It stems from the fact that a good player moves such that ANY dice roll will good for him. This is an excellent program, and it does not cheat. From a programming standpoint, it would be harder to program the game to cheat than it would to have it play normally, and why? To risk your reputation as a developer? I don't think so.
***** I e-mailed the author about what I also perceived as extraordinarily lucky dice rolls on the computer's part. His reply was that "the dice rolls are completely random. In later versions, you also have a statistics screen, that will show you the number of doubles rolled for black and for white." I'm not sure what he means by "later versions", as I have 3.1. I suspect that the perception that the computer is too lucky is based on the fact that people remember the lucky rolls, but not the mundane ones. In any case, his reply, combined with Dan's testing (see below) has convinced me that it probably does not cheat. An excellent program. I've played it so much I'm starting to play Backgammon in my head when my mind wanders. "Out, damn spot!"
***** Good game but if you are a beginner, don't expect to beat it often. Like others noted it seems like the dice are favored towards the Palm. Maybe an update of the dice rolling algorithm is in order.
***** This version actually taught me how to play Backgammon! Now my girlfriend and I often play Backgammon on a real set as an alternative to Chess but we play nicer than the Palm version.
***** I'm sorry, the doubles may be evenly distributed, but there are other ways to win without getting more doubles than is fair. I thought the other backgammon program i had cheated until I played this one. It's uncanny the way that the only way to play your role sets up the computer to knock 2 of your pieces if and only if he gets one role out of all of the possibilites of the dice, and then he gets it. I'm a pretty fair player, and if there was a way to do the stats on favorable roles, the computer would win that stat. What I mean by this is I role exactly what I want about as often as I expect to. The computer roles what it needs 6 out of 10 roles. I have never felt so strongly about a computer program influencing the random outcome of the game in all my years of playing against computer opponents.
***** I love this game - I downloaded it a couple of weeks ago and it has now become my most played game. I don't agree with all you whiners who say it cheats. I have set it to hard level, and I beat it an average of 3 out of every 5 games. I'd been looking for a good backgammon game, and am delighted that I found this one - and for free nonetheless!! Thanks for a great program!
***** Really nice addicting game. I don't thinck the program cheats because I can win because the present score is 63-40 for Me-Palm. (using the doubling cube). I think there is one bug: If you are playing with the doubling cube and select 'new game' the cube is automatically doubled.
***** "There's no such thing as luck, except for when it favors your opponent." Backgammon, by Paul Magriel. Great game.
***** I tested the statistics of the dice. They are NOT normal. It is neither uniform when picking a particular roll, nor is it uniform in a particular position. It would appear that the developer picks the best roll for the computer, and then randomly decides to do that roll or a truly random roll. Check the number of times double 4's come at startup. It does not happen enough, showing something funny even on the first roll. As mentioned below, if a perfect roll, one out of 36 rolls, is needed, this roll is obtained better than 50% of the time, which is very suspect.
***** This is a great program! Very fast, and good graphics. This is a must have for any palm!
**** Fun game. Dice favor Palm bigtime. It always seems to get the right roll at the right time. Still it's entertaining and does sharpen playing skills. Highly recommend.
**** Very good game to practice and develop your strategies against the LUCKIEST opponent I ever played. Too often gets the rigth roll at the rigth time. However I´m hooked on it and enjoying it a lot.
**** I like to cup the gem backgammon to my Palm. Thank You.
**** Would be 5 stars except by the doubling cube facility does not have any logic in it hopefully version 4!
**** Great game. I am hopelessly addicted. Only two things keep me from rating it 5 stars. (1) The doubling cube is really dumb (2) The game itself needs to be harder. I beat it about 4 to 1.
**** Very nice and playable. The beginner level is very good (yet beatable). It has some UI issues with prefs, and playing 2-player is possible, but odd (one player must play either backwards or upside down.)
**** I've played this game about 800 times now, and I can say for a certainty that it does not cheat. However, it does comfirm my uncanny psychic abilitities--I can predict critical rolls of the dice for both myself and the computer 82% of the time. (I have been keeping track). Many thanks to the author for confirming my prescience.
**** Very good implementation. I don't think it cheats. I beat it about 4 to 1 in 40 games (very addictive!!!) in the beginner's level. I haven't tried the advanced player yet. Apart from the skill level I would like an aggresiveness risk tacking level. It would be more fun if your opponent goes for the ultimate win, risking to be beaten up pretty badly. As it is now it's very to predict the strategy of the program. Overall very good stable and fast application.
**** I agree that it's a good game. However, anyone that believes there isn't something in the program that results in some outrageously lucky rolls is kidding themselves. I can't imagine why the programer would do that on purpose. Perhaps it's just a sophisticated bug. If you're roofed and the game has the 4 and 6 points, don't be surprised if your next three rolls are 6-6, 6-4 and 4-4. The odds of not coming in on 4 open points is 1 9. It will happen closer to 1 in 4. The game seems to have more success hitting you needing two dice than you'll have hitting him with one. But you have a better cheat.... "New Game". Hmmmm, maybe the programer is in cahoots with Palm expecting you to replace the PDA you broke following your 6th unsuccesful roll from the roof.
**** Great addictive game. Keep playing it over and over again. But, boy, can the Palm cheat or what !! If I suspect the fix is in, then I have an ace up my sleeve - its called "New Game" !!
**** Pretty good job! I must say I wasn't expecting very much when I downloaded this program. To be honest, I thought I would be deleting it after the first few games... there's nothing more annoying than playing a stupid bot. But, as it turns out this game plays pretty well, especially compared to the only other palm backgammon game I tried(don't remember which). There are some definite weaknesses in it's play which might be improved in the next version, particularly cube handling(we've heard that before), opening strategy, and back positions, but overall this is an impressive effort. I was particularly impressed with the computer's checker play, which approaches a professional level. I am no software developer, so I don't know what the limitations are in the Palm environment, but it would be nice to see backgammon for the Palm that played as well as Jellyfish, Snowie, or some of the other classic neural net bots. (For those who are interested, a free desktop version of Jellyfish can be obtained from http://jelly/effect.no/.)
**** A normal distribution of dice rolls does not necessarily prove the game does not cheat. This is because cheat opportunities can also be somewhat randomly available on the board. For example, open blots can also be normally distributed during a series of games. If the dice are biased to hit blots and the blot placements are randomly distributed, the cheating cannot be detected by just looking at the dice distributions alone. It would take much more sophisticated statistics. I like this game.. Sometimes I think it cheats, but I'm not at all convinced it does. When a weak player plays a strong player, it can seem like the stong player is just lucky. Or the weak one is just unlucky. But, backgammon is a "luck-handling" game. It's all about placing your men in a way that best manages the probabilities/luck. The one who does this well will have luck on their side. And it could just be that this game does this pretty well.
**** For a free program this is a pretty good download. Don't listen to all those posts that talk about the program cheating. You always hear that with programs that utilize dice. People blame their loses on dice instead of their often incompetent play. The programs checker play seems to be at an advanced intermediate level (definitely not advanced) its handles the doubling cube adequately but could definitely be improved. It's worth taking a look at.
**** Great game - but sometimes to easy. On "advanced" level the score is now human = 196 | palm = 54
**** Very addictive. I had to delete it in order to get anything else in life actually accomplished. Also, on my Zire 21, if I turned the PDA off while the game was on, I would occasionally have to do a soft reboot when I turned it back on hours later (not if I turned it back on shortly after turning off--only after my security settings were invoked). I am not certain this was being caused by the game, but it may have been. I was also annoyed at its seeming "luck" at first, but improved enough to beat it more than it beat me. So I am on the side of the other reviewers who assert that it does not cheat.
**** I have never seen a game cheat as much as this one. How convenient to know what you need for a roll and be able to give it to yourself. How convenient to know what you need to block your opponent and get it. I have deleted this game several times but still put it back on because I WILL NOT LET THIS DAMN GAME WIN!! I lose at a ratio of about 4:1 and I'm a damn good player! I guess I'd be better if I could control the dice the way this game does. Bravo on creating a game that can think for itself. We puny humans should surrender to its greatness.
**** Nice program all in all. I've probably played over 1000 points worth (with doubling). I've also noticed the possible "get the roll I need" syndrome, however, even at the advanced level, I can easily maintain a 100 point lead. As for the doubling cube, I've found there are two advantages: 1) It allows you to undo your entire move before passing the dice to your opponent; 2) it allows to end quickly a game that might otherwise take a while to play out. I would rather the game knew that if, say, I roll a 6-3 and try to click a piece that has its 6 blocked, that it automatically move it 3, rather than my having to click the dice to move the 3 first.
**** I like playing this game. It can be hard to beat. I'm suspicious of the rolls it gets and I agree with some of the comments made about possible cheating. It does seem too often to get the rolls it needs and to get doubles to blast past a significant prime. But it's hard to say for sure if it really does cheat. Even if it does, it still is fun to play and can be beaten.
*** This game cheats! It always gets the roll it needs.
*** I know when I'm being cheated. Just watch and see how many time the computer is able to get his piece off the bar when ther is only one point open on the board.
*** This is a well written program and if you are a 1st Class backgammon player you will enjoy the challenge of this game. Unfortunately it is not for the beginner or 2nd Class player. It has no option for player level and will beat you every single solitary time you play it. I got very frustrated with it after about 30 games and deleted it.
*** Good AI, could be better if had hi-res support and didn't cheat. Colour support wd also be good.
*** Program is very well done, looks good, BUT no matter what the trash talking "poet" previously wrote, the AI does role out of statistic 95% of the time, wich makes the game a lot less enjoyable. I ve played a great number of game with it before writing this review (over 200 games), and the odds are simply out the window with this program, And by the way, when writing a review, please don t insult others; it s a software, not a religion !
*** Although this game is good to learn on (what better way to learn defensive play than to be demolished every time?), it is still very frustrating. To the people who say it doesn't cheat because you can win, obviously don't know much about programming AI. Just because you can win doesn't mean it doesn't cheat. The computer has more total doubles, and the majority of my doubles are 1s and 2s; while the computer has more 5s and 6s. You can be in the best position in the world, and it will get four double 6s IN A ROW to end a game. I've seen this happen three games in a row. That is just statistically improbable. There is also the case of unusable doubles while you are on the bar. You can still win, though, just by learning the computer always has the same strategy and using that against it.
*** This would be an Excellent game, but as people have stated before "IT CHEATS". The dice have never rolled so well for anyone that I have ever seen. I used to play backgammon in tournaments, and still see other people who do. We can only beat this thing one out of 10 at best, and we used to play for money. It is not skill, the dice are rigged.
** Would be a great game. However, after playing 20-25 games I noticed that the computer player ALWAYS seems to get the roll of the die/dice that it needs. Even after I've buried them back on the other side of the board it always seems to get double sixes (multiple times) to catch up and overtake you while you're getting 2/1's and 3/1's. I only beat it once and I should probably have beaten it 6-7 times given it's dice rolling routine was truely fair. I've played the game a long time and I've never seen the 'luck' this game has. I've deleted it.
** I've played many games and have only managed to win one. It's curious how once I double, the computer seems to get all the doubles it needs and I get nothing! It doesn't matter how good your strategy is if the dice are fixed! I'm deleting it.
** The game runs great. But if you don't like to lose - don't bother. The computer is definitely favored in this game. If you leave a pawn open - the computer will capture it 9 out of 10 times. It is very frustrating.
** This game would be so much better if it wouldnt always CHEAT YOU OUT. The color is nice on a Visor Prism I have to admit but having it roll doubles for himself when he always needs them irratates me like none other. It also can be hard to play because it is real easy to make mistakes and there is no option to undo ur move. I really hope the maker of this does something about the game, then I will give it *****
* Won't work on a Palm Pilot Professional. Crashes with a fatal exception requiring a soft reset. I'm sure it's cool but I can't play it!
* Good game playing but has a very irritating quirk. Won't let you move pieces according to your preference. The game forces you to accept moves it thinks are correct and won't let you make moves it doesn't find "acceptable". So, if you're anything other than a "by the book" player, this proggie probably isn't for you.
HandyShopper - English v2.9b
HandyShopper is a great shopping list tool, with plenty of features.
***** I'm totally hooked on this software! Makes shopping easier. Thanks Mr. Chris!
***** El prgrama mas increible y util que he instalado en mi palm. Versatil, facil. Los adjetivos son pocos. Se puede usar para contactos hasta como despertador, que mas. Increible
***** My most-used program ever. I use it for: grocery shopping, Christmas lists, and even a list of favorite quotes. A super gem. My only disappointment: not able to beam a list to another PDA, thus, unable to have my hubby make the shopping list up while I'm gone. This was formerly available with this prog. Minor quibble, though.
***** I've never even bothered to review a program before, but I felt obligated to say something! Quick! Download this one before it costs what it's worth!
***** Complex but simple to start out. Great for organizing trips to the store or open projects. However, when doing a non-shopping list the terminology used by the app can be a little confusing. Great job!
***** Simple, Free, Great!
***** ...Still my beating heart! I've been without catsup & toilet paper, making an extra trip to the grocery at 9 p.m. for milk. I am so grateful this is now compatible with my Treo 600!!! Thank you thank you thank you for my very favorit freeware program!
***** This is the best grocery shopping program I've seen. I've seen some other "purchased" ones & they don't even begin to compare to the flexibility of this one. I use this list for everything: shopping, bills due & paid, to do lists and the list goes on and on. Thank you so much for such a superb program. I strongly suggest to anyone to download this program - you won't know what you ever did without it!!
***** It has everything, its EXCELENT. And it have more done you could imagine, like "One-Hand Mode" that gives you the possibility to manager your buy in the grocerie shops without the pen, just with buttons. FANTASTIC. Work great on Zire (2MB memory).
***** The uses for this program are endless. I have a list of my wife's and my own meds and one with our personal info. I have a list of our autos (VIN,license plate #, tire size and I have alarms for inspections and License due dates.
***** This is the first program for which I've taken the time to write a review, but I can't say enough about it. I downloaded it several weeks ago and played with it a little, and after becoming more familiar with it's capabilities, finally took the time to customize it to my personal needs. May I just say WOW. This is a wonderful tool, it's the most-used app on my PDA. It makes grocery shopping easier and faster by allowing categories and aisle designations, so I'm not running to the other end of the store to pick up something I would have forgotten on a handwritten list. I also set up a database for my recipes, so that when I'm planning dinner for the week I can quickly see what ingredients I need and don't end up in the middle of cooking and realize I forgot to buy something. I also set up a gift list for next Christmas, so that throughout the year when someone mentions something they'd like to have, I make a note of it and my list is already made for next year. I'm thrilled with this program, many thanks to the developer for keeping it freeware.
***** I have been using HS 2.1 for over 2 years and it is fantastic! I am a compulsive list maker and this is an excellent tool. I have setup dbs for CDs, movies, books, websites, etc... along with subcategories...everything is organized and quickly accessed! Christopher you are brilliant!
***** I have to say that you put great detail into this program. Not only is it useful, it is very user friendly. Thank you for such a wonderful program! Write more please.
***** Rarely do I take the time to review products, or believe all of what is said in the review section, but this program deserves the attention. I downloaded it a few minutes ago and was completely blown away at it's intuitive interface, ease of use, and feature set. I can't believe it's free but thank the author(s) for keeping it that way. Within 10 minutes of installing it, I have a workable grocery list made. The wife will flip when I come home without forgetting to pick up something. Excellence is the only way to describe this program. Thanks.
***** I'm in LOVE!!! Thank you to the programmers of this App. Free! woo hooo.
***** As an organized shopper, HSv2.8 meets my need for a serious but user friendly program for my Palm 515. My first experience w/icons & I'm surprised by its usefulness (beyond just looks). Love the layout; many fields & options! HS is a 10. High praises for a prog designed to grow with me. Thank you!!
***** HandyShopper has an amazing array of features all of which make shopping easier and more fun. What I really appreciate most is being able to check off several stores where an item is likely to be sold: then when I go to each store, I bring up the list for the store and all unpurchased items are there reminding me to buy them. If I can buy it there, I check it and it disappears from the list for the other stores also. If not available I can uncheck the store for that item and the item will still show up on lists for other stores. This wouldn't be possible on a simple ToDo list. An absolutely wonderful program!
***** This program has everything you need for grocery shopping. First, preprogram and categorize all of your items. When you need an item, just select it's category and then check off the item. It goes to the top of the list with a check box so you can see what you have added. When you are ready to shop, change to the needed mode and sort by aisle. Check them off as you go, what could be easier. As a bonus, I have also used this program to track daily calories for my diet. I use the price field as the calories, then I can quickly get a total for the day. This is definitey the killer app on my Palm Zire. I can't believe it was free!
***** It is not easy to write a program which is fun to use and extremely useful. This is not just a shopping program, I use it to track my expenses and bank accounts as well. All I can say do not miss this one. Works great on Sony Clie T625.
***** Absolutely fantastic! Handyshopper is the most frequently used program in my palm, helping me keep track of everything from shopping lists to task lists. I've recommended it to friends and they love it too! Feature recommendation for future updates: ability to add Stores column when All stores (minor, but could be handy).
***** The best program I have on my Palm (m130) by far!! I waited a month to write a review to make sure it wouldn't crash or cause any problems and I have NEVER HAD ONE PROBLEM with it. I use it to not only keep track of everything I need to buy in a bunch of stores, but also as a 'Travel Checklist' to make sure I do everything I need to do before we go on a trip and pack everything I need to take. Thank you for this freeware!
***** Easy to use, great list features--the program I would have designed if I knew how.
***** Great program! Simple but very useful. Finally I can write my listes and then decide what item to buy or try combinations to stay within a fixed price. Compliments Chris! :]
***** WOW!!!! I have used this for quite some time, but you have ALL the bugs fixed!!! I use a Tungsten|T. This is a must have now!!
***** I used this last year and will again use it for my christmas list. If you just turn stores to names on your Christmas list, it works great and gives you a real cost for each person and how much you really spent(INCLUDING TAX) on this Christmas. AWSOME APP!!!
***** Undoubtedly one of the best freeware apps out there. I've deleted at least three other DBs from my palm because HS2 does exactly the same thing--only better!
***** Very useful tool. Would like to be able to add a value to "coupon" so that the final price reflects the actual price. Just a thought for the next upgrade.
***** The best shopping program you can get, for FREE!
***** This is the best program ever!!! I use it not just for shopping but to organize my otherwise hectic life! Thank you very much Chris for such an awesome program and making it available for free : ).
***** This is a GREAT program. I use it for shopping, Christmas List, you name it. Easy to use - Highly recommend!!! I can't believe that a program this good is free.
***** Simply awesome. Works on my m515.
***** I use it for my jobs "soda fund" and is a great tool. Very stable and easy to use. Works good on my Handspring Visor Deluxe.
***** Great program. Works fine on my Clie.
***** Just LOVE this program!! Have used it from day one and with the most recent updates I like it even more. Great for shopping, christmas lists, etc. Thanks!!! :o)
***** One of the greatest Freeware apps out there today. VERY easy to use, lots of options, etc. If you are a guy like me who hates shopping, who wants to get in and out, this app is for you!
***** Never thought I would use this program. After using it for a few days I found it to be very easy to use and highly useful. I now use it all the time for work and home. Download it!!!
***** I use HS not only for shopping (groceries, CD's, hardware, pharmacy, etc.) but also to make lists for almost everything I might have to remeber and check off. Very stable.
***** I love HandyShopper! I've been using it since the v1.x releases! And whenever someone at my local PUG asks me which expense program I use, I beam them HandyShopper! :) Great app!
***** Wonderful, works as advertised -- pick it up!
***** Since I got my palm, I have loaded many different types of software - this is by far the simplest and the most useful one so far! It's not just for shopping - keep track of things you want... or that you need to buy for gifts - you can use it for any sort of list you can think of. Now i wish he'd write a financial program just as good!!! Thank-you for this one - sincerely!
***** This program is reason alone to stick with the Palm operating system. I love it! From organizing my holiday lists to keeping track of dvds, it is simply the best. I've paid good money for programs that can't touch Handy Shopper. Thanks a million, Chris Antos!
**** I recently downloaded Handy Shopper and its been great. The only problem I have is when I delete an item I get a Fatal Alert "MemoryMgr.c, Line:4384, Free Handheld" Does anyone know how I could fix this problem cause it locked up my palm?
* The previous version was EXCELLENT. Unfortunately, every time I open Handy Shopper 2.2, it crashes my Sony Clie. I just wish I could get this to work. Sigh.
The Prison v1.8
The Prison is a Breakout-style game featuring a variety of power-ups and special bricks, with some relatively unique effects like magnetism and teleportation.
***** It´s a very nice freeware arcade game.It works well on my TE.
***** I love this game. I play it all the time. I even created a set of boards for it that you can a get as an add-on, and there are other sets that you can also get at the developer's website. A great game and a must have for everyone.
***** Great game! Every time I play it, I get a bit farther and find some cool new twist. A lot of fun.
***** Absolutely terrific game... Hard to believe it's freeware, and it works great on my T3! If I had a nit, it would be faster controls. But that's a very minor nit... Great job and a great game.
***** This games is almost as good a dx ball for pc. The only bad thing I can see is that the powerups dont last long.
***** Great game! I like how an editor is included so custom levels can be made. Just awesome! Thanks for the freeware!
***** When I first downloaded the game in '03, I gave it a three for some minor, but annoying problems (Visor Pro, Palm OS 3.5). Now, after the upgrade, it rocks!! No more problems! More features! More fun! The upgrade downloaded seamlessly too!
***** Sweet game. Although, I had to modify the Key controls for it to work on my Zire 21.
***** I just tried it on the treo600 and it works flawlessly! It even remapped the screen-off/key-protect button correctly, most apps don't. Excellent =)
***** Excellent! Graphics are good but the most important thing about them is that the ball doesn't blur too much...even on my Palm Vx it is very easy to see at high speeds. Also, I tried out the editor and found it to be very intuitive and easy to use. I had one test board designed, exported and installed on my Palm in about 5 minutes.
***** Your lookin' at a darn good awsome no crap great stupendous game!Download by all means!
***** This is an excellent freeware game. Gameplay is very good and the graphics look amazing. Of course like the reviewer below I can't see the bricks on my visor prism. I have contacted the developer and he explained that the next version will fix this. There is a problem with the screen redrawing procedure this app uses that I have pointed out to him. All in all he is very responsive and has made a great game. And to Dercormeister there is a color version of hardball. I have it, if you want it e-mail me at chris067984@yahoo.com.
***** Awsome game! I've had it for a couple of months now and it works great on my palm m130! Its got great graphics and 50 levels must have!
***** Great game. The level editor is cool, too. I'd love to see some more levels, either from the author or from other players. Email me if you want to swap some boards.
***** Your game and the level editor are awesome. So far you have made the world a better place than bush... How does it feel!?
***** Great game...turly a AAA rating. thanks to the effort put into developing this and providing it to the world free of charge.
***** This is one of the classics for Palm, to stay on my PDA forever! The graphics are great, the gameplay is captivating, the ball DOES NOT BLUR at higher speeds, and to top it all off, you can make your own boards if you defeat all 50 levels! Awesome job, man!
***** Fun game. Great color. Always works perfectly.
***** FANTASTIC! Great, played it to the end! I gotta say level 50 is very very difficult! But I escaped! So where do I find more levels?
***** Not to fond of regular BreakOut, but this is so good and I can't let it go either. Works perfect on the M515.
***** I love this game. It's a great thing to do when you're bored. I highly addvise getting this game.
***** This game ROXX my Kyocera-6035 Smartphone hard!!! Awesome gameplay, cool features - the best free game I've downloaded in a long time. Makes Hardball look completely lame.
***** I just can't stop playing this game!! It's awesome!! And it's free!!!
***** Fantastic, works great on Palm OS5 (a hi-res version would be cool...). The 'icing on the cake' is the small Windows app to make your own boards and export them to Palm pdb format. Brilliant and addictive. Cheers Aaron!
***** Great very great!! I'm not english very well.. T.T; but write one word... Thank you... Aaron Curtis!
***** Are not enough stars to describe this game! I Have a Palm 515 and it works great on it! IM Karen 50 west virginia! TAKE A BIG BOW AARON(C) THIS GAME ROCKS!!!!!!! BIG TIME!!!
***** Great game I have high standards, and this surpassed them. 50 levels. Great interface, superior action, 5 stars.
***** Not thing to say...just D/L and try it~! Super cool!!!
***** I'm kind of skeptical of freeware because usually it's not worth the time to download, but this game rocks!! It reminds me of playing atari, only much better graphics and more challenging. Scenery changes keep your interest and with 50 levels, I think I'll be enjoying this game for months. It's very addictive and being free makes it even better. Great to kill time or just play while watching tv. I'd love to see what other games you've created!
**** Bets brickout-style game for the Palm...hands down. My only problem is similar to someone else's. On my Prism, the standard bricks don't have color or texture. Just white. Maybe a fix in v. 1.1? :-)
**** It is a nice game. Thank you for making it freeware. Works well on my Palm V.
**** Great game. Only problem is it needs a quick way to PAUSE the game, like using the UP or DOWN hard keys. Hope you impliment this in a future version.
**** What a nice game! Basically, the idea is to "push" away the ceiling and escape through there. Although some of the sounds get annoying over time (the ball makes a noise and speeds up occasionally) the visuals are great!
**** Great simple little game, and really good that stylus control is supported too.
**** I just got my palm a week ago, and this is the first game I've downloaded. I'm still getting used to using the buttons, and the ball seems to speed up too fast too soon in the game...even on easy mode. But, it is overall a very good game. One which is going to take some practice for me to get good at, but one that I will be leaving on my Palm for some time to come.
*** I've got low standards but this game drives me nuts!Okay so its not that bad for a pda and its got some okay graphics! Maybe I'm a pessimist but I really think that the guy who made it could have done a little better!
*** No bricks had textures on my Prism--they were all just white. Game play is OK. Not as good has Hardball. If someone made a color version of Hardball I'd be all over it.
*** Fun game but it froze suddenly and none of the buttons worked. After pressing the hotsink button the game started again like nothing ever happened (and the hotsink worked fine too). It hasn't frozen again so far but it does stutter occassionally. (Visor Pro, Palm OS3.5) Also it's annoying that the ball speeds up so fast so soon. And what's with the horizontal motion??
Launcher III v2.2
Launcher III, is an application launcher where applications are organized in tabs.
***** I have loved 1.5.2 for years. I was disappointed with 2.0, ads and speed. Forget every review about 2.0. This newest version has taken off where 1.5.2 ended. This is my favorite Palm app, at any price.
***** Too bad; you might have to spend some money on another product to find out how great this free one is. It's tops--even after all this time: small footprint, as simple or complex as you want it to be and as functional as the big commercial programs you'll have to spend money for--with cleaner lines and an intuitive interface.
***** Used it on my Kyocera 6035 and now on my Samsung i330. This program ROCKS!!!
***** What an awesome launcher! It is very easy to use, very intuitive to set up. The "Gadgets" are fantastic (I wish there were more) and allow MUCH easier operation of some previously cumbersome function (info, delete, beam, etc). It is much faster to navigate via the "tabs". Thank you, thank you, thank you for what has to be the best freeware prog out there.
***** This launcher is everything that the Palm launcher is not......it is useful...intuitive......customizable......and FREE. I would highly recommend this program to all those looking for a way to clean up their Palm and get some organization in their organizer!
***** I use this as my default launcher, and it's so much easier to use. You can drag and drop files just like in windows, and I can finally delete the files that I couldn't delete with the previous launcher. I highly recommend!
***** Launcher III is a wonderful application that is easy to use and makes access to Palm applications simple and colorful. It many features are very useful and help make the Palm user interface fun.
***** This is an *essential* app for the palm.
***** I always used Handscape from MobiMate(paid for it too...). But it was producing some undesireable effects on my Treo (keyboard model) and runs very slow. Have installed Launcher III on Treo(k) PalmOS3.5.2H4.0 and works fine. Also installed on Vx PalmOS3.5.0 and runs fine. Nice to see an App that does exactly what it claims to do. Keep up the good work (more gadgets on the screen a possibility?)
***** Really cool. Would be even better if the advertising could be deleted.
***** As others have said, this program is incredibly excellent. The only feature that I'd like to see would be a way to automatically keep all DOCs or all hacks in their own tabs.
***** Simply brilliant(: I only wish there was a way (is there?) of making it relaunch and keep the "Always use Launcher III" option ticked after a soft reset (which happens all the time with me and datebk4): Partly for convenience and party so i never have to see that ugly old app launcher again :P
***** Much better without the Adds. Excellent, Must have!! Keep up the good work!
***** Version 2.2 is excellent. It does everything I want and more. Palm would be wise to license this launcher for future versions of the Palm OS.
***** Many of you have written in complaining of the ads and poor performance. I have been in contact with the Author and he has corrected many of the issues that you guys have submitted. Also, with version 2.2, the ads have been removed, 16 greyscale an option, not forced, and the speed is bacj up with 1.5.2. I strongly urge everyone to go out to www.benc.hr, hold in your shift key and press reload/refresh to make sure you don't have a cached copy of the webpage, re-download Launcher III and re-install it. I guarantee you'll be impresses. Then I command you to send and email to the author telling what you think of his program. He's a great guy!
***** Another excellent freeware app that's gonna stay along with HandyShopper 2.0.
***** Fantastic apps! All of you who likes this stuff, please patronize Benc Software. We, users of freeware, must support companies that provide freebies.
***** I just downloaded the new version 2.1 (now with the adverts removed). I hadn't tried earlier versions but have to say that this is an excellent free utility.
***** But, like all the others, I'd rather pay than look at Ad's. I've reverted to the previous version.
***** Works great on my palm. It's now even better without those ads. Nice added features, too. Thanks so much for listening to us users. Truly a must have for all users! Get out there and show your support for the new version of Launcher III. Thanks Benc.
**** I have always liked this product, but now that I have moved it to my Treo 90, I have an issue: can LIII be made to recognize the SD card? The default Palm Applications program sees the card, but I can't find a way to get Launcher to see it.
**** I've always used Launcher III to start-up my apps and have found it very useful. This new version is just as useful, however it's a little slower and the adverts are a little annoying. Apart from that the new version supports greyscale/colour, the tabs are more configurable and there are a few extra gadgets, and it’s free! I still recommend it!
**** Great - but how do I get rid of the adverts. This isn't freeware, it's adware.
**** I only got one problem with it. It doesn't work with Sony Clie jog wheel. Any way of getting to do that?
*** I'd like to give this a better rating - it seems to be an improvement on the last version & runs well on my Vx -BUT- the LOGO advertising that takes up 1/3 of the screen on some tabs is very objectionable in my opinion. I'd gladly pay to register this app - IF it would get rid of the stupid advertising. This is s first-rate app EXCEPT for that crucial flaw. I can't endorse it until the "banner" is removed.
*** I hate the ad. I use 10 apps (3 columns) or 7 apps (2 columns) to get rid of the ad.
*** The version 3.05 seems very good, except 2 points: It's now Shareware ;{ and why dosen't it support the Hi-Res of the Handera?
** Still a good Proggie, but with this advertisings I will use 1.52 till they can be deactivated in preferences. This is just a waste of memory.
** The banner you see in demonstration is always on !!! No thank you !
* Launcher III is excellent. But the banner ads that now appear onscreen in v2.0 every time you use it (which is every day, all the time) are unacceptable. I'm going back to the previous version till the ads are eliminated. Sets an ugly precedent: are we supposed to accept annoying screen-space-wasting banner ads on our Palms with every app we use from now on? Whether free or paid, this is a BAD trend. When the banner ads are eliminated, I'll try v2.0 again. Otherwise, a terrific company, with excellent software -- and a marketing "genius" apparently intent on shooting him/her-self (and us) in the foot every time we power-up with the annoying "new" Launcher III.
* DO NOT use this program on a Visor. You tap at the outermost edge of the graffiti screen to activate the menu. This means that you can't adjust the LCD contrast, because when you attempt to tap the icon for adjusting the contrast, you activate the launcher menu. I also had to hard-reset because for some reason I couldn't remove it from my handheld. The program also caused hot-sync problems. I got a serial "serial port busy" error message when I tried to sync. When I tapped on the calculator pop-up to move it, my handheld locked-up. My advice would be, "STAY AWAY FROM THIS PROGRAM!!!!!"
* This is a great program, with features far beyond the built in browser. The tabs are easy to navigate and organize, the gadgets are very convenient, and I like being able to open DOC files with a tap. That having been said, I do not at all like the ads. I realize the author has put a great deal of work into the program, and I don't begrudge him being paid for his time, but there should then be a registration option to turn off the ads. I would much rather pay then look at ads every time I switch tabs. I deleted this program as soon as I realized I couldn't turn them off. It's a great program, and I'd happily pay for it, but its not worth turning my palm into a billboard.
* I upgraded. Saw the ads. Tried to get rid of them. Couldn't. Now I want the old version 1.5 back. Get rid of the advertising and this version would be 5 stars but I will not use it until then.
* I downgraded back to version 1.5.2 because this new version puts ads on the tab screens.
* I was excited to see a new version of this launcher, but I can't stand the adverts in each tab. I went back to the old version.
* Also very much annoyed at the ads... However, even more disappointing is that on the whole, the changes are not entirely useful, and it does run slower than 1.5.2.... what I liked about this app is that it is (was) much faster than the other app launchers. So I am also back with 1.5.2, even if the ads are removed.

***** I always used Handscape from MobiMate(paid for it too...). But it was producing some undesireable effects on my Treo (keyboard model) and runs very slow. Have installed Launcher III on Treo(k) PalmOS3.5.2H4.0 and works fine. Also installed on Vx PalmOS3.5.0 and runs fine. Nice to see an App that does exactly what it claims to do. Keep up the good work (more gadgets on the screen a possibility?)
***** Really cool. Would be even better if the advertising could be deleted.
***** As others have said, this program is incredibly excellent. The only feature that I'd like to see would be a way to automatically keep all DOCs or all hacks in their own tabs.
***** Simply brilliant(: I only wish there was a way (is there?) of making it relaunch and keep the "Always use Launcher III" option ticked after a soft reset (which happens all the time with me and datebk4): Partly for convenience and party so i never have to see that ugly old app launcher again :P
***** Much better without the Adds. Excellent, Must have!! Keep up the good work!
***** Version 2.2 is excellent. It does everything I want and more. Palm would be wise to license this launcher for future versions of the Palm OS.
***** Many of you have written in complaining of the ads and poor performance. I have been in contact with the Author and he has corrected many of the issues that you guys have submitted. Also, with version 2.2, the ads have been removed, 16 greyscale an option, not forced, and the speed is bacj up with 1.5.2. I strongly urge everyone to go out to www.benc.hr, hold in your shift key and press reload/refresh to make sure you don't have a cached copy of the webpage, re-download Launcher III and re-install it. I guarantee you'll be impresses. Then I command you to send and email to the author telling what you think of his program. He's a great guy!
***** Another excellent freeware app that's gonna stay along with HandyShopper 2.0.
***** Fantastic apps! All of you who likes this stuff, please patronize Benc Software. We, users of freeware, must support companies that provide freebies.
***** I just downloaded the new version 2.1 (now with the adverts removed). I hadn't tried earlier versions but have to say that this is an excellent free utility.
***** But, like all the others, I'd rather pay than look at Ad's. I've reverted to the previous version.
***** Works great on my palm. It's now even better without those ads. Nice added features, too. Thanks so much for listening to us users. Truly a must have for all users! Get out there and show your support for the new version of Launcher III. Thanks Benc.
**** I have always liked this product, but now that I have moved it to my Treo 90, I have an issue: can LIII be made to recognize the SD card? The default Palm Applications program sees the card, but I can't find a way to get Launcher to see it.
**** I've always used Launcher III to start-up my apps and have found it very useful. This new version is just as useful, however it's a little slower and the adverts are a little annoying. Apart from that the new version supports greyscale/colour, the tabs are more configurable and there are a few extra gadgets, and it’s free! I still recommend it!
**** Great - but how do I get rid of the adverts. This isn't freeware, it's adware.
**** I only got one problem with it. It doesn't work with Sony Clie jog wheel. Any way of getting to do that?
*** I'd like to give this a better rating - it seems to be an improvement on the last version & runs well on my Vx -BUT- the LOGO advertising that takes up 1/3 of the screen on some tabs is very objectionable in my opinion. I'd gladly pay to register this app - IF it would get rid of the stupid advertising. This is s first-rate app EXCEPT for that crucial flaw. I can't endorse it until the "banner" is removed.
*** I hate the ad. I use 10 apps (3 columns) or 7 apps (2 columns) to get rid of the ad.
*** The version 3.05 seems very good, except 2 points: It's now Shareware ;{ and why dosen't it support the Hi-Res of the Handera?
** Still a good Proggie, but with this advertisings I will use 1.52 till they can be deactivated in preferences. This is just a waste of memory.
** The banner you see in demonstration is always on !!! No thank you !
* Launcher III is excellent. But the banner ads that now appear onscreen in v2.0 every time you use it (which is every day, all the time) are unacceptable. I'm going back to the previous version till the ads are eliminated. Sets an ugly precedent: are we supposed to accept annoying screen-space-wasting banner ads on our Palms with every app we use from now on? Whether free or paid, this is a BAD trend. When the banner ads are eliminated, I'll try v2.0 again. Otherwise, a terrific company, with excellent software -- and a marketing "genius" apparently intent on shooting him/her-self (and us) in the foot every time we power-up with the annoying "new" Launcher III.
* DO NOT use this program on a Visor. You tap at the outermost edge of the graffiti screen to activate the menu. This means that you can't adjust the LCD contrast, because when you attempt to tap the icon for adjusting the contrast, you activate the launcher menu. I also had to hard-reset because for some reason I couldn't remove it from my handheld. The program also caused hot-sync problems. I got a serial "serial port busy" error message when I tried to sync. When I tapped on the calculator pop-up to move it, my handheld locked-up. My advice would be, "STAY AWAY FROM THIS PROGRAM!!!!!"
* This is a great program, with features far beyond the built in browser. The tabs are easy to navigate and organize, the gadgets are very convenient, and I like being able to open DOC files with a tap. That having been said, I do not at all like the ads. I realize the author has put a great deal of work into the program, and I don't begrudge him being paid for his time, but there should then be a registration option to turn off the ads. I would much rather pay then look at ads every time I switch tabs. I deleted this program as soon as I realized I couldn't turn them off. It's a great program, and I'd happily pay for it, but its not worth turning my palm into a billboard.
* I upgraded. Saw the ads. Tried to get rid of them. Couldn't. Now I want the old version 1.5 back. Get rid of the advertising and this version would be 5 stars but I will not use it until then.
* I downgraded back to version 1.5.2 because this new version puts ads on the tab screens.
* I was excited to see a new version of this launcher, but I can't stand the adverts in each tab. I went back to the old version.
* Also very much annoyed at the ads... However, even more disappointing is that on the whole, the changes are not entirely useful, and it does run slower than 1.5.2.... what I liked about this app is that it is (was) much faster than the other app launchers. So I am also back with 1.5.2, even if the ads are removed.
Disable Buttons v2.1
Did you ever lose some data because your palm turned on for an accidental key press?
***** This program is a godsend! It fixed the one problem I had with my beloved Zire 71 and allowed me to buy a cute case for it instead of an ugly hard case. I love, love, LOVE you!!
***** This saves TONS of battery power on my Palm! Great job.
***** This is a great program, but as the power button continues to make my Zire71 turn on, I have to use the inconvenient, and hard to achieve "double click" of the power button. I have a suggestion. Is it possible to use some sort of code to turn it on? like for example, writing 'on' on the grafitti board, or pressing the 'on' switch while pressing two other keys. If it is possible, would you be kind enough to establish a new version of this program with that feature? Thanks very much for your time. Your work is very much appreciated here.
***** Excellent! Finally a freeware app that disables the hardware buttons, and ACTUALLY works on my visor prism. I couldn't ask for more. Good Job!!
***** THANK YOU!!!!!! I already have cut a hole in the case for the protruding "joy"stick which has up to now cost me a lot of productivity--and caused me to have to reload all of the software back onto the unit numerous times because the battery kept running out. Your app is a HUGE help. Now I have to go find something to patch that hole up with....
***** It works great in my Zire 71. This is what I needed to stop those accidental turnnings on.
***** Just what I needed - it solved the one shortcoming of my Palm Zire 71 - the protuding joystick which turns the unit on at the slightest movement. This allowed me to replace the awful Zire soft case with a leather case instead of one of those heavy and awkward hard cases. Only imprefection is that the power button double-click option is erratic, which the programmer warns you about (I turn that option off and generally the Zire still doesn't turn on unintentionally).
***** Finally! Nothing is more frustrating than opening your Palm case to find your device's battery dead - especially when traveling. Thank you.
***** This was the utility where I'm waiting for. Now it is possible to switch of the crazy Joy Stick of the Palm Zire 71, which was switching on the unit nearly always in my pocket. Thank you.
***** Works well here on Palm Zire, that only has the flimsy rubberish flip cover. Helps solve a major annoyance of this model.
***** Not bad except that it also turns off my Treo when the flip lid is opened. I wish it were Treo-aware.
***** I installed this on my Treo 90.It works better than I could have imagined. Now using the case I have for it just got much much better. Thank You!
***** This is the program I have been searching for. I can confirm that it works perfectly well for a Palm Tungsten T. I was about ready to throw the thing in the bin after buying a leathercase for it only to find it on all the time. THANK YOU! I would suggest that one idea I had for the next version (if one is coming) could be to incorperate a keypad lock mode similar to a mobile phone, where two selected keys pressed in quick succession will activate/lock the buttons etc.
***** I just installed this on my Zire 71, it works perfectly. What a great idea!
***** The way I use this app with the security feature on my Treo90 is by:
***** E-X-T-R-A-O-R-D-I-N-A-R-Y !!!!! Congratulations! Suberb app!!!
***** V2.0 works great on a Treo 90. When it's active, button presses only turn the PDA on for a split second. Power conservation is such a critical issue on these new PDAs with power hungry color displays and built-in, low capacity rechargeable batteries. Great app, thanks!
***** Works fine on my Handspring. Recently I have found the battery going flat quicker than normal. I thought I unit might be switching on in my pocket, this will cure it.
***** I'm sorry for Nick, but I have actually tested the application on a m505, and it seems to work flawlessly.
***** Palm500s are a disaster at this point [buttons always on draining power]. so if you have this model you can't go on without it.
***** With the help of Peter Smith I have discovered that the problem that locked up some devices (as reported by Nick and by Peter) was due to my web server, that sometimes provided a truncated PRC file. Now that the file is stored as a .ZIP, there problem should no more appear.
***** Exactly what my Zire71 needed to stay off in my pocket. Thank you for this useful utility!
**** It works very well but just for the first attempt of turning the Palm on with the buttons. I have tried this on a Clie T665 and a Tungsten.
**** It basically works, except I've had no success protecting the POWER button on my Tungsten C. The double-click on is frustratingly unreliable. It definitely is not as simple as "a second press within a second", nor is there any reproducible pattern. Sometimes I end up having to reset the unit to get it on. Unfortunately, the Palm {C|W} "belt holster" case does seem to squeeze the power button sometimes, especially a new case that's tight. Bummer.
**** Version 1.1 works fine on my Treo 90. I've used it for 4 days, and it has worked as expected every time. I have no hacks installed.
**** I just installed it on my m500 and it seems to work without any problems. I can tell it is not truly 'disabling' the buttons - the palm still powers up but is immediately turned off again, which is probably good enough. I wish there was a solution to really disable the buttons, but perhaps the OS or hardware makes that impossible.
*** Excellent idea, but the result has a few glitches on my T|T...the first time I press a disabeled button it works fine, but the sekond time...2 sec later, 1 min later and so on turns the device on...so my problem still is there. Need a program that can disable all buttons exept power switch at all time with no second button press to start it...
*** Hmmm, I thought that this was a great utility until I discovered that if your PDA is locked, pressing a button will still turn it on with the security screen showing. Since my PDA locks after an hour of non-use (aka., it is often locked when in my pocket), this little program won't do me much good at all! Is there any way to prevent the security signon screen from coming up?
** I tried out the last version on my m505 and it made me lose a lot of data so I worry about installing a new one. That's ok though, because I have a better solution: There is a program called Address Uno. I'm pretty sure it's listed here on freewarepalm.com somehwere. What it is is the basic address book program, but with one-handed navigation. Now, I actually don't use that feature much but what I AM interested in is the side effect it has: the hard buttons don't work to let you open other programs unless you are editing a record. All I need to do to save my palm's power is press the address button, and make sure it's in a category with no records (unfiled for me). This way, it is only possible to quit the program if the palm is turned on and then the selected category somehow changed.
** Hi! Just installed it on my Tungsten T2. It basically works, but unfortunately not with the on/off switch, which used to be my biggest problem in the past. Having it installed yesterday with 'disable all' again I lost my complete data after carrying my T2 with a soft-case in my pocket. Nice Try!!
** Still the program is not Tungsten friendly. I am really looking forward to the next version.
** Seems like a good idea, I've been waiting for something like this to come along (one that works) but it doesn't. My m505 (OS 4.0.0) crashed on the launching of this, but the database remained labeled open so my palm won't delete it. I am worried about unmarking the open bit becuase even though I know it's not working (ie the hard buttons still work) I think it might be doing... things. Anyways, I suggest it be written for HackMaster (just a good habit for programs, ie hacks, like these).
** It locked my M505 on and disabled the buttons and I had to do a hard reset.
* Hi, me again. I've just done all I could to delete this program but it all failed. I am currently in the process of restoring my palm after hard-resetting it to get rid of this program.
* Good idea. Bad implementation. Installed on Palm M515. It locked all hardware buttons with the system ON! Like Nick, I had to hard reset to get rid of the the thing. I don't think it likes OS4! Developer's website makes no mention of this program I can find.
FreeJongg v1.0c
FreeJongg is a freeware adaptation of the classic game of Mahjongg Solitaire.
***** I play Freejongg almost every day and this implementation is terrific. (I had forgotten that I posted a review earlier this year about an auto-off problem I was experiencing and another review about its immediate resolution...) Funny thing (well, to me) is that only a couple days ago did I realize that I could choose different board layouts. From menu, select Game | New Game and pick a layout and tap OK to see what it looks like. Some are interesting, some are fun, and some border on impossible. It was nice to find this little surprise after so many months of playing. Thank you, William, for such a great app, and especially for releasing it as freeware.
***** GREAT! GREAT! GREAT! Regarding the fact that some setups might be unsolvable: Just try it several times. I tred #16951 5 or 6 times and finally solved it.
***** This is fantastic on my zire 71! Download it now!
***** Ça fait longtemps que j'attendais ça ! Très bon et très beau jeu. La petitesse de l'écran d'un PDA n'est pas un obstacle pour ce programme en Hires. Simple, mais terriblement efficace, attention à ne pas rater votre correspondance ;-)
***** I love it! It works perfectly on my Zire 71.
***** This is a great program. Thank you so much!! I use it on my Clie PEG-T615C and just beamed it to my older Palm IIIc. Works great on both. Thanks again for a wonderful product.
***** Works flawlessly on my Zire 71. Many different layouts and backgrounds. An excellent implementation, and it's free!
***** Works great on the Tungsten E. Only drawback, the small tiles leave my eyes tired. Is there any way to make an option for fewer tiles and larger ones? The best Palm game in my opinion.
***** Excellent! The only game up to now that will last on my T3. Forget all the other Mahjongg games you have to pay for. This one is free and beats 'em all.
***** Great datebook replacement. Free of all the iconpalooza like in DateBK. I especially like the month view in HiRes. Go4it!
***** Great game. Nice Artwork, really a piece of HiRes. Works almost perfectly on my T1, except for the already mentioned "Shuffle Board" bug. But it's definitely worth waiting for the next Version instead of paying money for a commercial product.
***** This is one of my favourite time killers, because it runs painfully slow.
***** Very nice! Works well on my m505, and the tiles are much easier to see than other games that involve money. Good range of layouts too.
***** Excellent application. Better than versions of the game that I have paid for in the past. Actually deleted the puchased version of the game I already had in favor of this one. Tiles are easy to recognize and the graphics are great. Only thing I would suggest is to decrease the time it takes to select a tile - when you tap there is a delay before the tile is highlighted. Perhaps in a future version? Thanks for the great software!!!
***** This game is really cool. And it's FREE! Way to go!
***** I experienced a won't-auto-off problem and was immediately contacted by the author of the program who pointed me to version 1.0a which fixed the problem. It's a terrific app. Thank you for releasing it as freeware.
***** I have paid for some Majongg games that were less impressive than this. I am running it on a Palm Tungsten T3 and it 'auto-offed' just fine. I went to the authors site to make sure I had the most current version. http://wbo.freeshell.org/freejongg/download.php
***** Hard to find a freeware mahjong for palm. This one even supports new high-res palm devices! thanks, thanks, thanks!
***** Great game !! please keep it up !! Is there any chance of a low resolution release for older palms (ie. Zire 21?).
***** It helps to read the manual! :-) Posted my last review prematurely...the one thing I "dinged" this for was that there was only one layout...turns out I just being too stupid to notice where to change the layout. I just tried version 1.0b and you can now set the layouts to change at random which makes it even more user-friendly. If you're looking for a Mahjongg game, don't pass this one up!
***** The best thing to happen to my palm Tungsten in a long time! LOVE this game. It runs flawlessly and the rendering of the tiles is great!
***** Excellent piece of work. One of my favourite time killers.
**** There are very few free taipei/mahjongg type games out there and this one works flawlessly on my hi-res Clie NX80V. One of the few things that keeps me from giving it 5 *'s is that it only supports a single tile layout (PJongg, my favorite shareware mahjongg, supports configurable layouts which adds greatly to the variety). Still, as others have pointed out, this free program more than holds its own against most paid versions. Nice work!
**** This mahjongg game works like a charm on my Palm T3. My aging eyes have adapted to the size of the tiles. I was complaining about hidden, but free, tiles but have now learned to press my stylus on the partially hidden tile to discover what tile it is. I would give this an excellent rating, but I can't win the dang game! I play at least twice a day and win maybe once in 30 games. I have never had this problem with other mahjongg games. Is anyone else having such a hard time as I at winning!?
**** The only reason it don't get 5 stars is b/c this doesn't have the one feature I could've REALLY used... running it off an SD card. My Zire71 is strapped on space, so being able to do so would've allowed me to utilize every precious bit of internal memory. That's the only reason it doesn't have a place on my PDA... or the mem card.
**** I love this game. I just played my first game on my palm m130 and I was imprest. The tiles are a bit small but you get used to them.
**** Great game, plays wonderful on my Treo 270. The only issue is the Shuffle Board Option, when used the device freezes and reset has to be perform.
**** Great game! The only issue is the Shuffle Board Option, if used when there are no more moves left, device freezes and a soft reset has to be perform on my Tungsten-E
*** This is a terrific program. After seeing it run on my boss' T|E, it has .almost. inspired me to upgrade from my 160x160 Treo 90... :) "So why the middle-of-the road rating?" you ask. I must echo something mentioned in Robin Hall's earlier review: this app disables the Palm auto-off and if you fail to switch apps or power off the handheld, it will remain ON until you pick it up later. This has happened to me three times and I've yet to find a setting (I thought perhaps the clock was contributing, but no dice) which fixes the problem. Sadly, I gotta put this one aside until that gets resolved.
*** The game is great and the graphics very good on my Clie should rate 5*. BUT the game appears to disable screen Auto-off, so if you stop playing without moving to another app or powering off, you find youself with a drained battery.
*** Would be **** if it wasn't sooooo slow on my original Zire. What can it be doing ?
*** Runs painfully slow on my Clie - it takes over a second of pressing on a tie for the program to register I have done anything.
*** Fun but this isn't a true Mah Jongg game - there is no guarantee of a solution. I've had games start where immediately I see a "no moves possible" dialog. So if you find yourself losing most of the games, you are not alone.
** Doesn't like hires screen - the whole game area is squashed up into the top quarter of the screen and is totally unplayable.
DrawIt v1.43
This is a freeware multi-page drawing program for a color palm.
***** Terrific program. Lots and lots of fun.
***** Incredible, I been following this software since it was version 1.1, the improvements keeps coming! It's fast and functional, the interface's very intuitive, even more so than commercial software like Tealpaint. Small size too, plus with the Desktop component available, it's just awesome.
***** Damn, this man should get a medal. A fantastic drawing program... and it is free!!!! If u have a Palm IIIc like me u can't go wrong with this. I have downloaded all the versions so far, and i like them more every time I get them!!! I don't know how u could improve it but plz do!!!!!!!!!
***** A brilliant program, beats out Sketcher any day! Only, your website is down, so I can't get the converter. Other than that, my M130 and I like it!
***** ....Possibly the best application this year. A must have for any IIIc/m505/Prism.
***** This is such an incredible program!!!! much better than n e uva drawing programs on the net!!!!!!!
***** I have a Palm IIIc and this is a great program. All I ask is that u put in a circle and square template (I think that is what u call it, u know like in Microsoft Paint). Thank you for making this program.
***** Works great with Tungsten E os5. I love it and I can't beleive its a freeware. Highly Reccommended!!!
***** I love the interface, and from what I hear it's a great program, but it crashes the Clie, so I really can't say.
***** Andrew is staring greatness in the face. Programs like this show non-palm owners that they really ought to join the brotherhood.
***** I really would like to see this one on a b/w palm....
***** This is a great small drawing application that does the job well. I have upgraded to a Tungsten and unfortunately the images become corrupted.. any updates coming up?
***** Excellent application ... nothing to say, nothing to add to the other comments ... just download it if you don't have it !!!
***** Yes, I'm writing another review because I can't help myself! Andrew's responsiveness has been amazing and this program just keeps getting better and better. Since I wrote my previous review, so many new features have been added (including undo!) that I felt like I needed to write another review. Thanks Andrew!
***** This program is great. Each time I think of something it may be lacking, it like Andrew reads my mind and releases a new update. Unless the next version can cut my grass and balance my checkbook, than this is as good as it gets.
***** Fantastic. Very well done. I true enjoy this.
***** Incredible work! This is the classiest application for the palm I have ever seen! I bow to your Code-Fu.
***** A great program to appreciate some of the capabilities of my visor Prism. Thanks!
***** I love you....
***** Yeah well I must be the most stupid person to ever hold a palm because I can't figure out how it works. if someone could please help me figure out how to get off a screen with 9 tiles I would be most appreciative
***** Anyway we can get this for the people who don't have a color palm? (like me). It looks like a sweet program, and the people that have it love it. i'd like to be part of that crow :)
***** WOW! This is a beautiful program! The interface is VERY clean and the functions work great. And all under 25K. Absolutely love it. An undo feature would be nice :)
**** Great colors. Practical programs and buttons. But i do not know why my Palm IIIc hunged twice. It alerted a "fatal error". I don't know why. I deleted it from my palm, temporarily.
**** This is a great app! Thank you for giving it away. It has a very good interface once you get used to it (there are many small buttons). I also noticed a bug on my m505 where doing a flood fill while the menu bar was down wood flood the entire upper portion but other than that it's great! And you can export things too, so it's not just a silly little game you play with when you're bored. There could be one small improvement: CustIt could be integrated with DrawIt. Even if they aren't put into one program maybe there could be buttons to switch between the two? Anyways, great app! Download it now if you haven't!
**** Great program; however, in the newest version you have to go to the picture index first in order to create a new one, and the index takes an irritably long time to draw all the thumbnails. Still, can't beat DrawIt when it comes to features etc.
*** The idea is god but, it seems to have a lot of trouble in Palm Zire71, cause the image gets minimazed to all the way up everytime I reopen the program,and also if ikeep something that I draw on screen and then I come on less than an inch of the upper part reappears the rest is in blank like if I cutted it. Good app just check that.
*** It's got a lot of good features. I really like it but... I can't save On my zire 71
*** On a Zire71 am unable to see my drawings again when quitting the program or when creating a new page. Only redraws about a 25% of the screen. Same outcome when the images are imported and converted on a PC. If facing the same problem use PixMarker instead.
*** Man, Its a great program, but just like the post before me said, it doesnt save and if it does the picture is small and you can only see the top part where usually the toolbar is. the tools are great and i can create a great picture...BUT WHY WONT IT SAVE??? Please find a fix to this bug!
** It won't save on my Clie! It would be really neat, but it won't save!
** The GOOD: clean, elegant interface; multiple functions.
** Well, the program is great, right up until you try to save. o_O It doesn't let me save AT ALL with my zire 71, even though it asks several times if i want to.
** Nice looking program, with a very good selection of tools. However, not able to save or reopen images with my Tungsten E, with either the freeware version or version 2 (the shareware version). Also not able to see "saved" images transferred by the beta BMP installer on the author's web page. In other words, you can draw a pretty picture on the screen, but the image is gone when you open a new image or quit the program.
** It seems impossible to run it on a not color device...
EasyCalc v1.22
Scientific Calculator with trigonometric funcs, complex numbers, graphs, unlimited number of variables, degree/radian mode, HEX/OCT/BIN/DEC conversions and more.
***** This calculator is awesome. If wasn't going to spend 100 dollars on a graphing calculator, I would have spent 60 dollars on PowerOne Graph for Palm. This software is easy, "affordable ;)" and very nice. Thanks. For those who can't figure out how to change their language, I simply installed the english version, no problems at all. "Calc_en.prc". Thanks, Eddie
***** This is way beyond 5 stars! Thanks for a great program! I can't believe it's freeware!
***** This is one of the best calculators for school/work ever. The calculator has graphing abilities(and table mode :), and a scientific cal built in aswell. My personal favorites are the fact that you can create your own functions in memopad such as Pythagorean T. If you are not in the mood to program, use the solver function. It's FREE, so what do you have to lose. It's a shame they don't put this cal in the top 5 programs. If I could give it a 100/100 I would
***** This a great program. My daughter needed a graphing calculator for school, but I didn't want to spend over $100 for a calculator that she will only use for one class. I did find out that when you install the program, you need to install the "en" program for the english version.
***** Just the Palm calc program I had been looking for since many weeks! Simple, powerful, complete and free: what else could you hope to find in one single piece of software?! Really a good job, Ondrej: keep on like that!!
***** This program is definitely amazing and props to the author, but be aware users, there a number of bugs...check the project page on source-forge for a listing. I'm sure in time these bugs will be remedied, but for the time being, be aware of the limitations of your calculator (this applied equally well to the calculator you buy at staples!!!).
***** This is one of the best calculators, and it's FREE. The only thing that I do not understand is why the calculator is all in spanish. Please write back.
***** Perfect. Nothing to complain.
***** This is the best calc ever made. Thnx for makin it free. It saved me over 100 dollars I need it for school. Thnx lots.
***** Has almost everything. Think it's missing list and tables.
***** This is not only the best calculator for the Palm OS, but it is more paowerful, and thanks the the 33+MHz chip in most PDAs, faster that most graphing calculators. I have a TI-85, and since downloading this, I haven't used it. And to top it off, it's free (that beats $100+ for a graphing calc!).
***** I'm an Astrophysics and Computer Engineering Major, and I must say this is the best calculator program for the Palm OS. It can pretty solve all my problems thanks to its great features for storing functions and variables. The graphs also work admirably, and you can solve all kinds of equations with it over any interval. A must have for all scientists and engineers! Great job!
***** I d/l'd ver 1.01 long ago. Now I have 1.18 on my Clie' I havenn't used the basic calc that came with PalmOS in a looong time. This is a MUST HAVE for anyone that want's more then just the basics. I especially like that it saves previous answers for some time.
***** Great great great work! You made surely the best Palm calculator: stable, performing way to have graphics too. Thanks for italian translation. Make more programs please!! :)
***** I'm a student trying to get a masters degree in applied mathematics. I MATLAB for the big problems but I use EasyCalc for the medium to small sized problems. The ability to create variables, functions, and graphs makes this a great calculator. Best of all It's GNU software. Nice work Ondrej!
***** The only difference between this [free] program and a $100 TI-83 calculator is the lack of programming capabilities...it's still good though ;)
***** Una de las mejores calculadoras para palm, se las recomiendo. Excelente, ademas incluye el codigo para agregarle nuevas funciones.(como por ejemplo factorizar e integrar).
***** I am an Earthquake Enginner and think this is the best calculator I've able to find for my Palm. I'm using it daily since my HP48 stopped working. GREAT!
***** Useful, easy to use yet extremely powerful. I wish I' had it while I was at the University. (if teachers would have let me use it of course). Excellente software masterpiece!!
***** Definitely, the best calculator among the free ones. personally, as a student learning mathematics, it suits me better than any other calculator out there.
***** This is the best calculator I've used on the Palm. I've been using it since the first day I got my Palm (way back in 1999. I've run it successfully on 3.5, 3.51, 3.52, 4.0 but when I upgraded to 4.1, it seems to be crashing my Palm Vx. But still, I'd give this program a two thumbs up!
***** A ultima verssão está em portugues, Calcula de integral definida a graficos de derivada. Numeros complexos para Eng Eletrica e Matrizes NxN para Algebra Linear. Os graficos podem ser parametricos, polares ou normais (ate 6 simultaneos), Comentarios em portugues, me enviem (eu que traduzi).
***** Very good calculator but can anyone tel me how to switch in English.
***** Maravilhosa. Dispensa as calculadoras da HP.
***** In a word ... BRILLIANT. If you do any scientific calculations at all this is the one - get it!
***** Incredible! The best in its class. My TI-89 sits in my briefcase most of the time. Very versatile and easy-to use. Thank you very much for making it available to us!
***** Simply great, with all the features, powerful graphing functions, zoom/pane... and it's free! ;-)
***** Wonderful! Haven't seen a better palm calc/graphing platform. Easily threw in and plotted sinc fxs, trig * gaussians, etc. Nice cut and paste features from sci. cals. to graphing inputs.
***** I have almost thrown out my HP. Graphing is excellent.
***** Fantastic calculator for students and engineers. And it's FREE. Will it have programming capabilities? Just a hint -)
***** Easy to use, powerful and it's a freeware.
***** Best-possible calculator for Palm Handheld.
MetrO v5.2.6
Métro computes the shortest route between two subway stations in more than 250 cities around the world (Paris, New York, London, Tokyo, any city with a subway & more!). FREE, FAST & ACCURATE.
***** Fantastic application!!! If you do any traveling at all, you need METRO. All stops in Atlanta, New Orleans are 100% correct. I use the program on a TREO 600. Perfect with no problems.
***** We took the Metro all over Paris for a week navigating with nothing but Metro. Always accurate. Five stars is not enough for rating this program. And it's free!!
***** Hello,
***** Metro with the London Underground required only 43K RAM on my Visor. The application worked perfectly, and was both a convenience and a time-saver. One nice feature is that the major London sites are also indexed. So you could, for example, enter your present Underground station and select 'British Museum' as the destination. Another nice touch is that the approximate time for the trip is also displayed. This is one well designed program. Load Metro and leave the underground maps at home.
***** Brilliant app for navigating my way around major cities, even in my home of Kuala Lumpur... Thanks for keeping this wonderful piece of art free!
***** Hola yo vivo en santiago y lo unico que puedo decir es EXCELENTE.......
***** For someone who doesn't know anything of French, Metro was extremely handy in Paris. Subsequently, realised its importance in London for the night buses. Excellent work done by the programmers. Many, many thanks!
***** WOW, just got back from Paris, London. I used this program for everything. Where to go, how to get there, times, I just can't believe how useful it was! I bought a couple programs for my trip that were USELESS. Good thing I found METRO, because without it travel would have been much more stessful. And it's FREE, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!
***** It's a great software!! I have being using MetrO from the time I first own a PDA (4 yrs ago). It provide accurate infos and make calculation from station to station fast and easy.
***** One of the best palm software ever! Even commercial ones are left behind with such outstanding program. It's very detailed and it even tell you step by step what do to go to x location. If you ever need a mirror site for your program just e-mail me, I'll more than happy to support you in anyway I can.
***** I am a native New Yorker whose long-term knowledge of the NY train system was tested when so many routes changed after 9/11. This software helped me get around like a native again. The Paris version was perfect and let me move very quickly since I never had to stop to study and memorize train routes.
***** Utterly awesome. Thanks for a job well done!
***** I feel like another 5 star rating is superfluous, but I have to give it anyway. Amazing freeware software. Only upload the cities you need. Surprisingly accurate.
***** I agree, fantastic program !! Best features to retain are the estimated time for the journey (very useful !!!), some famous landmarks included (very relevant), and regular revisions of the individual city databases to maximise their accuracy. Works well, and the title splash screen currently is unobtrusive, allows you to start straight away without the need to tap the screen first !
***** Excellent excellent idea. This is a program that embodies all that is good about PDA software: free, simple, stable, small file size, with supreme hands-on relevance and usefulness. I agree that separate databases for each city is fantastic and essential. Has both train stations, famous landmarks, and even buses !! (gosh !) Dont change a thing about the program itself, just refine the accuracy of each city's database over time, and you have a truly marvellous program. As is usual with such a complicated ambition, there are shortcomings in some of the database details. I tested the Sydney database, and there are some inaccuracies with destinations if they aren't specifically train stations. However, this is a minor problem. When each city's database is refined and made extremely accurate, this is an unbelievably good download. Can I give Metro 6 stars out of 5 for effort, innovation and insight ????? Go on, let me. A jaw dropping program. When a person asks what a PDA can do, this is one of the programs you show them !!
***** This program is amazing. We used it on a trip to London and paris. We were able to navigate the subway system with no trouble at all. This program save us countless hours and aggravation. Just enter your location and destination, your given all the info you need.
***** This has to be one to be one of the most useful applications available for a handheld computer and yet it's FREE! It's always difficult arriving in an unknown area, and Metro takes much of the stress out of travelling. Keep on going!
***** ...And it just gets better! I like the idea of having the tourist information in a separate PDB. File size (80k with the Genève PDB!!) and speed are what impresses me. It's also extremely accurate.
***** Found a slight anomaly. When travelling from Knightsbridge to Kensington (Olympia) it told me to get off a South Kensington and catch the District Line to Kensington (Olympia). However the only stop that connects with Kensington (Olympia) is Earls Court. Nothing major but I thought you would like to know.
***** Eccellente programma. Mi è servito molto quando ho trascorso una settimana a Berlino. Certo, se in qualche schermata del programma si potessero inserire anche delle immagini leggere inerenti alla serie delle fermate progressive, sarebbe il massimo. In ogni caso complimenti al programmatore: è riuscito a produrre un ottimo esempio di come si possano conciliare *utilità* del prodotto e *intelligenza* del produttore. Con stima.
***** This well designed app worked wonderfully! My first trip to Paris and we never once looked at a Metro map. It convinced my companion that the Palm is not just a toy.
***** This program has turned out to be a great tool. Planning a trip to paris and using the paris metro site I checked the program and found two better routings on paris metro. I then varified the routes with the metro site and it will save me time and transfers. Thanx for a great program at a great price, free.
***** As a frequent traveller, I find this fantastic. Only critisism is the interface... not so inuitive and the Metro splash screen is a bit annoying. www.sbb.ch do a Palm program for the swiss rail system with a great interface. Maybe get some ideas there? Other than that, keep it up. Great program and best of all, it's free!
***** What can I say. This has to be the best freeware app available anywhere. I have seen many shareware products that are much inferior to this one. I have just been to Prague and am planning to go to Rome and New York next year so I now have an excuse to take my Palm with me on holiday. Hang on, that sounds really geeky. Sorry!
***** Good program, but try to instal the databases/program to SD, but crach my m505. Only works in main mem. This is a bug!
***** Simply incredible. Useful is an understatement! Accurate and Free too! As per an earlier review, elevates the Palm from the toy cupboard! Long may it live.
***** A must have for anybody with a Palm. This should be standard software. Very handy for people who travel and like to take public transport without too much hassle. Oh yeh despite the great number of sities all the cities I used this applications in is very correct.
***** Simply stupendous! Gotta be the best freeware ever!
***** Great program:-)))) Top goal should be to get schedule info from transport companies via data import (to keep data complete and up-to-date;-)). Any ideas or contacts around?
**** A *wonderfully* useful program when you're traveling using the rail or public network systems in many cities! I use this program in Philadelphia, New York, and to a lesser extent, Paris (which has pretty easy-to-follow metro maps in my opinion). My only complaint lies with the esoteric interface, text or MEANINGFUL icons would be appreciated (otherwise this program deserves 5 stars!).
**** I agree with carl, the interface could be a lot more intuitive... an iconic interface *might* make porting the application to other languages easier but it doesn't beat pure text. I e-mailed the author before and he quickly replied, seeming a bit snippy about keeping the icons (blind to flaws) and didn't even want to consider an alternative text version. Still, metro is an indispensable tool, worth the download.
**** Wow, what a great app. I do wish there were a couple more intersections for Chicago, but, hey, it's FREE. I can't complain for that price :) This is a MUST HAVE for ANYONE.
KsDatebook v1.6.1
KsDatebook is a replacement of built-in Datebook of Palm OS.
***** I love the 2-week view. It works great on my Clie SJ-22.
***** I like this application very much and especially when used with MakeSpot. As someone mentioned, had this application had icons it would have been a killer app. good work Kim .
***** Very clean application. Adds some nice datebook views without the overhead and complexity of DateBk5 . Does not lock up the todo database except in the agenda view (allows popup todo to work). Very nicely done. No Problems on Clie SJ33.
***** The absolute BEST Datebook replacement you could ever find! I have been using it for 6 months now and still love it just as much as when I added it to my Zire 71.
***** Worth it for the month view alone. Very Outlook-looking. On my T2 it's pretty darn small, but readable.
***** The best I have found so far. Love the month view.
***** Datebook item categories and month view with appointment titles. This is heaven!!
***** If I could ask for just *one* addition to this excellent program it would be the ability to add a starting year to recurring items so that the entries in the future (birthdays, or other anniversaries) could show the number of years elapsed.
***** Love this program. Especially the month view. I can't figure out how to make Make Spot work though. The color definitions I make don't stay and the instructions don't make sense to me. Can anyone help out
***** Great program. Provides flexibility not found in Palm's Date Book and a lot of useful features.
***** Good catch on the categories bug. I also use DateBk5 and it did mess up the category information. Doing a Desktop overwrites handheld sync set things right. The calendar categories sync with Outlook using Pocket Mirror as well, which is a first for a free program. Great job! The only thing I'd like is some way to see the category assigned to the event and a list view.
***** Great! An application that does almost all for free! Congratulations!! One suggestion would be to support "multiple lines" in meetings (split view)
***** Absolutely amazing.
***** Simply great!
***** Great app, works perfect on my Zire 71. If you just could change the background color for every appointment I'll give you six stars. Maybe in future versions. Thanks.
***** Ksdatebook is great! It's easy to use and made my life organized (duh!). Thanks for making this cool application!
***** Wow, this has got to be one of the best Freeware Calendar programs on this site, especially if you also install the program MakeSpot, described in the KS Date Book manual, which was a difficult site for an English speaker to find (see below instructions). I have no association with either program nor its makers, but wow, with the capacity for colouring your calendar many different colours, using the Makespot program, (and for having smaller fonts on a Sony high resolution model, ?and maybe other types of Palm) this may be the best calendar freeware on this website, even beating my previous favourite on this site, Maximus ! Of course, with these independently created programs, you have to back up your Palm first, in case the program isn't stable. I've had no problems so far, and am amazed at the flexibility of the colouring of the calendar. Of course, it isn't a fully fledged Date program, its just one that vastly improves the capability of the existing Date Book, with a small file size. If you want a bigger more comprehensive program (with a much larger file size) then of course you can purchase several alternatives. But for basic uses, this improvement to the native calendar takes some beating; but reply here if you find a better freeware calendar program !
***** Great job!! All the improvement just fit on my need! If have the T-Chinese(Big-5) Version, Thanks God!!
***** Works on my Palm m515 running OS 4.1. Now, why can't the built-in DateBook be something like this? The Palms are now running level 5.2 or something, and the DateBook is still more or less the same as OS 2.0 - such ludicrous lack of improvement. Many, many thanks for making this a freeware.
***** Great datebook replacement. I've never found a datebook replacement I like till now. I've tried Datebook 5 and agendus but for some reason I didn't really like them. This is simple but a real keeper.
***** Very nice addition to Palm's Datebook appplication - Like having a handheld Daytimer, with `text in date' enabled in month view! (I wish `makespot' was available in English, to complement this fine program). No problems on Clie 760.
***** Very great freeware application.
***** Fabulous program. Australia Croc is right (see above): once it is complemented with MakeSpot, ksDateBook is nearly perfect ! Just follow Australia Croc's instructions to install MakeSpot, it is worth the pain !
***** This is the best datebook replacement software I ever used. I used it since it first released in Japanese. Thanks for the developer to make it a freeware!! 6 stars!!!
***** Great work. One question, anyway to get compressed font in week view using palm M515? or is this too low resolution for compressed view? can't seem to even get the choice on the options weeklist. Good work.
**** WOW real rival of Agendus. And freeware. 10nx!
**** It's a good application, but with icons support It'll be perfect.
**** Great application!! I really want to use this, however, I have a m515 and cannot get the compressed font option on weekview and have tried select font (crashed the palm) and tspatch (said I need version 2 or higher - don't think it was talking about the palm os. Any advice would be appreciated. Keep up the great work.
**** I like the weekly and monthly views. I wish though that there is an option so that completed tasks will not be displayed (same as the original Task application in Palm). I have v1.6. All in all, a very good extension to the orignal Palm programs.
**** Great add-on for your in-built Datebk. Would be even nicer if there is a duplicate event funtion. The original repeat option is not useful for re-occurring random events.
*** Obviously a brilliant program, but the most important feature is still to be implemented - small fonts in Day View. It's there for Week List, and is available in Agendus' Day View. This feature is a must for myself.
** I get a fatal exception error every time I try to run the program on my Clie S360.
BigClock v2.83
BigClock is a free clock with alarm, worldtime and timer/stopwatch.
***** ¡EXELENTE! ES LO MAXIMO GRACIAS
***** WOW! Very nice - easy to use. Thank you.
***** The color version is beautiful on my Prism. I just downloaded it and I love it.
***** Very cool! My friends got my hooked on BigClock! I love the themes option! It would be cool if the theme would set the text/bg colors too. Where are the submitted themes? I'd like to see what others have done.
***** Great program. I love the fireworks it shows for the first minute after new year's.
***** I used this on my m500 and it works great I don't even have to delete other alarms just to set a diffrent one.
***** Excelent clock!! It's exactly what I was looking for.
***** I used BigClock first with my Palm lll and then Visor Prism and now Palm TungstenT. It always perform very well. BigClock is the best software ever writen for Palm. I use it more than any other program. This world is still a good place to live as there is a man like Jens who wrote such a wonderful software and give it to us for free. Thank you very much, Jen.
***** I am using Palm for Japanese. BigClock is operating comfortably. And I am enjoying atmosphere by changing a BigClock theme.
***** Excellent!! The best clock/calendar I have seen so far.
***** Excellent!! Particularly like the chess timer that we use in SCRABBLE games. Great versatility. A must download. Thanks.
***** Great program, style and functionality! It even replaced my actual alarm. I found the snooze button funny :) I had one problem with it though... When I was first testing it, it crashed my Palm OS when I turned the Palm off while the alarm is sounding.
***** Great big faced clock for my Sony Clie SJ30. No more straining to see small numbers for time. Tks a million!
***** Works great on my m105. Everything is big so you can use your fingers.
***** The best clock for the palm. Work great on my m100. GOOD app.
***** Terrific. Great when you need a stopwatch, alarm clock or just the time!
***** Works great on my palm111xe very usefull,and neat to use. Have not had any problems. Nice application.
***** Crashes my TRGpro. Excellent utility, really well though out. However, version 2.8.1 on PalmOS 3.5.2 just crashes every time you exit to the launcher "MemoryMgr.c, line 2203, not a handle". Exiting via the calculator or similar works around this.
***** Perhaps the file on this site is faulty. I picked it up off another site and it is a dream. No crashes or problems on my IIIxe and nor did any of the other numerous current reviewers on that site. I would have to agree with the consensus on that site: This program is a must have. It is a beautiful alarm clock, timer, world clock, and clock and most of all it has been BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED with much thought. Check out the owners manual web page.
***** Very, very good.Congratulation.
***** It's awesome! Works great on my Palm VIIx.
**** Works great on my M100. Timer is useful. Runs w/ np problem for me.
**** Very useful, functional. I'm a bit disappointed about the themes tho, the creator won't accept my bmps, and it saves the finished product as .bct and not usable pdb.
**** Really great value for the price (free!). I noticed that at midnight it displays 00 in the hours field instead of 12. Other than that works great.
**** Would be nice to be able to chose from various system sounds, including Geek Sounds also available on Freewarepalm. Would also be nice to use the Alarm Vibrate on the m500 series.
**** Latest version caused my very reliable Palm IIIx to crash. Pity, the programme is excellent in previous versions.
**** Very useful if you ever need to use your PDA as an alarm clock or stopwatch. Had no problem running it on my Visor Deluxe.
*** On my palmIIIxe the alarm doesn't always go off! It really isnt a great travel alarm clock. Other than that all the features are cool.
*** Good idea - bad design - no support : (
*** Cool! I can play Zork!! But the font doesn't get very big at all so I can't play very long without a headache. :/
*** New version 2.82 is buggy, crashes on my Palm. But older versions are great!
* Kept crashing my Palm Vx every time, even after resetting. I had to restore several times, until I gave up trying to get it to work. Previous version was fine, but this one's put me off completely!
Graffiti Anywhere v1.5.4
Graffiti Anywhere allows you to use the Graffiti recognition system anywhere on the screen.
***** GOOD GOOD GOOD! I'm using Tungsten T... this help me to write my notes without opening my slide... Thank you!
***** FANTASTIC!!!! I have the Palm Tungsten T and I was looking for a program so I could write on the screen without the need of opening the graffiti area. Now i just hold the recorder button down and presto there is the text. The only thing I have found is I can't write at full speed like I could before!
***** it's a great application for TG50!!
***** FANTASTIC!!! Give this a try - V1.2 fixed the issue of holding down the button, I can't wait to see what else is on 1.3. Works perfectly on my M130.
***** I must agree - FANTASTIC.
***** This freeware is good works great on my m550.
***** I'd rather lose my appointments diary than not have this feature on my Tungsten.
***** good program but guys you dont have to hold down a button to write. Go into the program and in the folder acivation beside method click short press toggles, then select the button you want to press to activate Graffiti Everywhere. Make sure you check single tap recognition, now you can just press the button once to activate it instead of holding it down.
***** MOST EXCELLENT. For the past week I have finally gotten my Treo600, I have liked it. But having been a Pilot user since the very first day that it was sold many years ago, I felt something was missing in the Treo- the ability to write Graffitti is so central to the Palm experience. With your software package, I now LOVE my Treo. It is now complete. Thank you.
***** Bravo Thierry!!! I have a Treo 600. Your program works perfectly. The idea to have a button pressed when there is a need to use graffiti is fantastic. I was using popular software which are always working in the background. This makes it very difficult to use the pen for non graffiti purposes.
***** Wow ! It's incredible ! It works perfectly on my Clié SJ22. I think I'm gonna activate it for all my programs.
***** I just purchased a Treo 90 with thumbboard, but no silkscreen area. I still wanted graffiti input ability, so I installed Graffiti Anywhere, and have been extremely pleased! It is highly configureable, fast, and accurate. I also tried Newpen 1.4, but was rather disappointed with its performance compared to Graffiti Anywhere. Having the ability to input data using the thumbboard or graffiti is great. Thanks for an incredibly good program!
***** Great app. Works fantastically. Ignore some of the above users ranting on about having to hold down buttons to use it and not being able to customise which button it maps to. I'm 13 and I know! Very good and fantastically working idea. Flawless!
***** Works great on my Clie PEG-TG50 which integrates a thumb-keyboard but does not have a dedicated graffiti panel anyway. Now the full colour screen comes to play.
***** Makes graffiti a lot easier. I just wish there was some other way to automatically activate it except to hold down a hard button. But even so, I really like this program.
***** Very very good app..
***** A must have. The most important util on my palm.
***** Wonderful! The only thing I'd change would be if you could somehow see a whole word at a go before it faded off, which is the one PPC feature I see that I'd like. But in any case, cool hack, great little program.
***** Compared to Screenwrite (a shareware) this program is much better. It has the advantage of turning the program off for certain applications and more importantly it is "on demand", i.e. it is not automatically on. It works well with BugMe. Wish list: automatic recognition for capital letter as implemented in ScreenWrite. A much have utility.
***** This new version does not work with Palm Tungsten T. When I enable it then I have to make a soft Reset after crash. The old v1.3.1 works fine.
***** Ver 1.3.1 works perfect on my Treo 90. I like it better than Newpen.
**** Great program! Being left-handed, I'm only wondering if it's possible to somehow swap the letter/number-spaces, so I can write the letters on the right?
**** Great idea. Is there any way to have the wheel work for volume when the screen is on hold, or is that wishing too hard. Hack works as advertised on a Clie sj-33.
**** I have recently bought a T|T and this program is very useful because I don´t need to open the slide. But, this program does not recognize the tap function of the graffiti. This is something that has to be fixed so the program can replace the graffiti area completely.
**** Works well on a 505, makes a IIIc crash.
*** Its ok my Zire 71 has that built in and that it is hard to play games using the hard buttons!
*** Wow, it's great, but I have to hold down the button as I write, and in the screen where you pick which button to press, it's opposite... like i have memo selected, and datebook works, but if I have datebook selected, memo works.... great idea though:)
*** I was very excited about being able to use graffiti on my new treo 600. Keyboard entry is so cumbersome. However, what was wrong with the old graffiti? Why did palm have to switch to jot?!?!? It's exceedingly difficult to enter an 'i' because the treo 600 intercepts the dot on the i as a tap. Which is why the smart people who developed the original graffiti never used taps as an input method. And if you think 'i's are hard, try the question mark, the exclamation point, the division symbol. I guess I can tolerate not using those symbols, but do you know how many words in the english language contain the letter 'i'?!?
** The 1.3.1 version worked fine in my IIIxe (with OS 4.1). Just crashed some times. This 1.4.1 version crashed *all* times that I tried to launch it.
** It sounds like it should rock, but I can not get it to work on my I-500, and I really wish I could. If you fix this let me know, I would be stoked.
* Doesn't work in my Handera 330.
Napalm Racing v1.31
Game features are: 3D third purson race.
***** This game is so awesome! I can't believe the graphics on my Clie SJ22! Very well done!
***** This is a very, very, very good game. It runs on my tungsten w. I dunno how to play it using the graffiti though. For tungsten c/w users, just press the date button to turn left, the address button to turn right, and the mail button to start the engine. what's so great about this game is its customizability. you could change your car colors and even the race tracks. the only thing missing in this game is the lack in game instructions. but it's a great game nonetheless. reminds me of stunt run on my p800... only better!
***** It is pretty imagining !!! One of the best 3d simmulaion on palm in color.
***** This game worked perfectly on my clie sj33. You just need to turn HiRes assist off. Thanx man!
***** What an awesome game. Glad I downloaded it.
***** Works great on my PalmIIc. Free?? Amazing. Get it.
***** Sure wish I knew Russian! I've tried to download this thing for MONTHS!. Never could. Finally found a page in russian(I guess) that showed up in tooltips as Napalmracing.zip, so I clicked it. http://napalm-games.narod.ru/NapalmRacing/Download/NapalmRacing.zip. Took 2 tries, but finally got the game...in russian... Has anyone found an English version? I'm not a xenophobe, I just can't READ russian. Just English, and Appalachian...("ya'll jes gorta clik that thar thang..") Nice game, though. I wish the view was at a bit higher elevation so I could see turns coming up better. All in all - VERY IMPRESSIVE programming on a Palm (now the language...).
***** It's awsome, but could seomeone tell me how to get the color to work? I got an m130, and I cant figure out how to get it in color... e-mail me, or reply here :)
***** WOW! It's like a game for the sega-mega drive. Bloody amazing power for a relatively small game! To the developer: you might want to note that you can drive right over water giving u a bit of an advantage. If you play it straight though, WOW! Best game for Palm i've seen! Great job!
***** Works great on my Zire 71 Palm. Really nice game. It is really good to have a bit of Mac OS look on my Palm. Best thing since my Newton! Thank you.
***** Looks like a great game - unfortunately, when I try to open the zip file, it comes up corrupted.
***** OH MY GOD!!!!!! IT IS AMAZING, I CANT BELIEVE ITS FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!
***** Hello guy's, this the best game I ever played on the palm.(GOOD JOB). You can build your one tracks its so great, I LOVE THIS game its really the best game I ever played on the palm.
***** This works even on my palm 105, its great. The map editor is easy to use and the game plays well, what else can you ask for?
***** Great program! I never would have thought the palm could do this level of game! I did hit one small bug though: I made a random trackby just running my stylus across the screen and set no waypoints. I ran it and it said finish instantly (that's not the bug though). Then, as the camera flew around the car, there was a fatal exception. I have an m505 with os 4.0.0 if that helps. And to the guy who wants colour: you need to install the colour version, there are two seperate programs files.
***** Excellent graphics. great game. New ver 1.26 works with handspring visor prism. Top Notch job.
***** Great game ...no sound?
***** This game is all around great!!!!!!!!!
***** I would echo the comments below. I had problems with the previous versions on an M505, which kept getting a Fatal. I e-mailed the author, very responsive and the new 1.26 version solves everything. Keep it up and thanks.
***** What was great is now Brilliant. Today (13th Feb) the writer, Alexander, has updated twice. He is now on v1.26 with a safe mode. Yesterday my T625 was crashing, but after a few hours, and a few emails, he saved the day. SO ANYONE WHO HASN'T DOWNLOADED V1.26, Do so. This is THE BEST FREEWARE SIMULATION GAME YOU WILL FIND FOR A WHILE. If you had crashes this morning, re-download this afternoons v1.26 and go to the title page of both the Game and the track editor and tick the safe mode box. This should make it compatible with all Palms OS. VERY IMPRESSIVE. Play single race, Championship, against 0-8 competitors. Three levels of hardness, Make your own tracks with a stroke of a pencil. Adjust your car's properties and colour.It is good to see the Developer is checking these Boards. The Quality is excellent. Well Done Alexander.
***** If there was another star, I would give it. Just shows that the PalmOS can be used for more than just card games. The game play is fast and smooth enough on my greyscale HS Treo (OS3.5). All I need now is a plug-in steering wheel :)
**** This game is amazing, and I can't believe it's freeware. However, the map editor kept giving me a fatal error when I tried to open a track on my Clie SJ30.
**** The graphics engine is a magnificent achievement, but the game itself is unplayable - the terrain is too flat (you can't see enough of the road ahead) and you can drive across the water with impunity. Great technical work though. Is anyone else reminded of 'Elite'?
**** This program looks great on my Treo90 when it runs in demo mode. The problem is that there is no way of controlling the car since there is no grafiti area on the Treo and this program doesn't overide the buttons(date book,address, Memo, etc). If you press on one of these buttons, you exit the game. Very nice graphics- in color.
*** Cool, but the graphics aren't as cool as they appear on the add!
*** In 'normal' mode on my SJ30, I just get a small screen at the top, and a big black and white flashing box taking up two thirds of the screen! Switch to 'safe mode' and response is slow, and speed indicator wildly flashes between + and - speeds even if only pressting accelerator? Very strange.
*** This is an incredible looking game. Runs great on my m130. I wish MSMount saw this game however, so I could load it and all the tracks onto my memory card.
* Ran it briefly on my Tungsten. Crash, lock up, forced hard reset.
* This totally hangs my Tungsten. A hard reset was neccesary - lost everything.
* As well as Vince, the game only used approximately 1/3rd at the top of the screen on my my SJ30. The car stayed in the center of the barely visible track therefore it didn't not have the graphic's I was looking for. I am a race car game enthusiast, therefore being able to race on my Palm would have been great. I will check back occasionally to see if these problems have been corrected for the Clie SJ30.
A5 v0.1h(3) beta
A weekly organizer for the built-in Datebook and To Do applications.
***** A5 is by far the best 3´rd party calender app out there. It is not over-cluttered with useless features but at the same time equipped with all the necessary possibilities you want from an organizer. Competent support, great icons and the possibility of using the T3 screen to its full potential makes this app a killer. And it Free!!
***** Wondeful app. I worked with Datebk3,4,5, with Agendus, with DateMan. I tested all off them throughout (IMHO - and for my own needs) but this app is best. Quick, lean, does all the important stuff. eg. I always thought I was quick with datebk5 but then I had some embarrassing situations when I wanted to *quickly* add a couple of events and all the paper guys and girls were faster. With a5 I outrun them again. Thank you! :)
***** A5 is the best weekly organizer for Palms and Clies. I have been testing the Pre-Beta version in my CLIE TH-55, and it has many features (full screen,icons, high res. color, etc.) The Datebook is integrated with address book so you can easily enter a contact, and Datebook is integrated with the ToDo so you can quickly add a Datebook item to the ToDo. I have many items in my datebook and ToDo, and so far A5 has access them very quickly. I havae tried Agendus (Action Names, DateBook 4, etc.) and rate it far superior to them. Also Ronald has been great in responding to me for support and questions., Try it-you will like it.
***** I thought,finally a format that resembles my paper pocket calendar I carry at work; along with my Clie. And free. Up grading it makes it even more valuable. Great work.
***** This was an essential program with my Clie T665C. I recently moved over to a Zire 71 and it crashes there. Please make it OS5.2 compatible. My undyung gratitude if you do.
***** Once again Ronald you do not disappoint. What can I say that has not already been said? This program just keeps getting better. Thanks for the continued enhancements, it is much appreciated. I eagerly look forward to the next update. Cheers ;-)
***** Very usefull tool. Thanks from Belgium.
***** Works ok on my Vx...except when I drag and paste entries....it doesn't drag the alarm setting too, just the text info.
***** Great job. Works fine on my CLIE. special thanks for making it free.
***** I compare A5 to a Chopin nocturne or prelude: each new feature springs wonderfully from the organic logic and overall design of the composition. Keep it up, Ronald.
***** Works great on my Treo. I'm the managing partner of a law firm. I use it to keep track of my cases, clients and other lawyers. My personal schedule is also there. The icons and customizable colors are great.
***** Excellent application. Just one question. Why so much space to the left of each entry wasted? A small drop-down help would be useful too (to explain TNE). Keep up the good work.
***** Splendid work, Ronald.
***** Best week view software for the Palm! The support is excellent, too (couldn't open A5 from within "Today", told it rg and received a "tuned" version of A5 several hours later). Great! And thanks for making it free.
***** Compact but very strong.
***** It's already the best and it keeps on getting better and better!
***** Great program. It is very usuful to be able to see a complete list of daily schedules and TTD. Would be that much better if it was indented more to the left so that you could read more of the line at first glance. It is however a wonderful tool. The best calendar I've seen so far. Thanks for sharing.
***** Je l'utilise avec beaucoup de bohneur sur mon m515. A chaque mise à jour le logiciel s'améliore ! Pour un usage personnel, on frise la perfection. Une alternative à l'appli d'origine fade et qui permet de profiter de la couleur. Bravo et merci ! J'attends avec la prochaine version avec impatience...
***** Yo hablo espanol, y si me gusto mucho looks beautiful on my m505 great program. A "must" from freeware.
***** Para quienes hablan espanol. El programa es magnifico. Realmente convierte a la palm en una agenda de vision amplia.
***** If there's a Palm software that weds asesthetics and functionality to a rare degree, this is it. A5 has been so vastly improved since its first release that I have now bade Agendus (Action Names) farewell.
***** Looks promising, but since screen real estate is tight there should be an option to disable the display of priority etc.
***** Great on a high-res display (Clié) and if you don't have too many items per day. Gives a much better overview than the standard date book. Includes some nice features like custom colorizing the background of each day of the week, or showing the current time in the title bar.
***** It is a good starting page for my palm.
***** Great program, I use it every day! I was wondering if anyone knew how I might get more icons for it? A special thanks to the programer for making this free!!!
**** Great program. 5 stars when it supports full screen on NR70V.
**** The only problem I have with this application is that I get double alarms for every event. A reset gets rid of them, but I don't want to reset everytime I put in a new event. I still use the app regaurdless.
**** This is a very nice program with its capability of categorizing eventsss. But those who use handera beware, after I tried it on my handera, it messed up the system datebook display and I was unable to restore it to its original state!
**** Quite nice but: deleting an event crashes my system!
Space War v3.0
Power up the phasers and photon torpedoes and Fire!
***** Arguably the best game ever written for the Palm! Recently started playing again as I changed to an M515. Despite a few crashes, the game is as fun as it was before!
***** It is totally awesome!!!!!!! I think it should be improved as much as possible in any way possible though. I would recommend it to anyone who needs to fill in time or just wants an awesome game. My favorite thing about it is you get to blow up other ships, (that is a boy thing =D) and it is just plain fun. I hope you will try it even though it may not seem very fun. (I'm not a geek ;-])
***** Although I haven't tried with my TungstenE yet, my old IIIe didn't back up my levels, and worse the entire game, when I had to reset it. That's not a real problem, but I have no idea why this Could have happened... GREAT GAME!
***** Great game, its one of those simple, yet full of tactics, and is incredibly adictive,........a lot of fun, definitly worth downloading.
***** Version 2.0 seems to have ironed out all the bugs listed in the previous reviews, and has added some fantastic new features. The team combat is great - try flying as a Klingon against 3 Borg cubes. A must have for all Trekkies.
***** Don't have to be a trekky to like this game, it's easily my favorite.
***** This game is sooo good, its really versitle, take on a "leader' by puttin the guys raank way up, and give yourself a buddy. or go one on one with a few sentry guns to spice it up. not to mention the limitless number of tactics you can do with choosing to not fire, even non- trekkies should go for this one.
***** I like it and play it a lot. The second game that caught my interest (after backgammon but i'm tired of playing that).
***** AMAZING!!! My favourite game so far! Its fun! Thanks alot!
***** Wow! Great game. . . I love it! You can play the Federation vs. Dominion! And its challenging! If you appreciate ST even slightly, get the game.
***** I find this game very addictive and a lot of fun. A definite download for your palm. I would like to see this game developed more, even if it requires a small fee for future releases. This game has the potential to be one of the best games ever !
***** Certainly the best game for the Palm™ OS! Well-crafted, fun, and definitely addictive. You can customise nearly everything, and gameplay is easy to learn. I cannot discontinue singing its praises. A must-have! (A note to the author: if you do happen to read this, I have some new ship ideas: Ferengi, Cardassian, Bajoran, and Romulan. (When a Klingon wins, it displays a Romulan victory note; fixable bug!))
***** Super Fun game! Good for passing time plus easy to learn!
***** It's addictive, it's strategic and it's free! Surprisingly, the AI doesn't hit everytime on it's highest level so a Cadet has a chance to take out a Fleet Admiral. I could go on for a while about this game. You are to be commended. Great job!
***** This is one addictive game. Nothing as addictive since SolarWars. Kind of the adult version of PokeMon - Palm users fighting away every chance they get. Lookin' forward to ver 3.0! Commodore Hee.
***** Great piece of work! Good game not only for us trekkies but everybody. I like to use a borg ship (regenerative shields) it has saved my butt a few times. Just one minor grip, there is no lieutenant commander rank. Star fleet should be alerted to this oversight. Kaplah!!
***** Thanks. Loads of fun during down time.
***** Love the game, great for "starving artists" -- download it if you're into strategy...
***** This has to be one of the BEST free games for the palmOS. in colour or B&W, it seems destined to consume many hours of my boring lectures in my quest to become a Klingon admiral... If only I could program this innovatively!
***** After 193 victories and 20 defeats, say hello to a newly minted Rear Admiral! Michael, great stuff, read my email about ver 3.0!
***** Awesome!
**** Great game. Thank you for all the hard work on this. Extra race specific traits would be nice. I look forward to your next release.
**** Apart from the reset issue on a T3 (must go to another app before going to launcher - freezes if you try to go to the launcher straight away) this is the best game I have played on my palm in a while. IR makes it pretty much king. Note - this review is almost two and a half years after the last update - what a game.
**** A fun, addictive game. I'm also frustrated at not being able to move up in rank when playing the simulated game against the computer. I have acquired over 13,000 points but I'm still stuck at the Cadet level when I should be at the Lieutenant level.
**** Simple, but great fun. A quick game can be had in just a few moments, or it can drawn out into quite a little battle.
**** Agree with the previous reviewer - overall a very good game that actually manages to capture what I imagined to be the feeling of Star Trek type ship to ship combat. Potential to be a great game. Seem to be some bugs - I reached experience points for the Commander level, but rank remains at Lieutenent. Possible improvements - How about multiple opponents? and differences in ship ability - ie acceleration, turn rate.
**** This game is really worth downloading! It has got to be one of the best games for the palm! It is really fun to play IR games against your friends! The only guff I have about this game is that it seems that your exp gain for fighting sim battles caps out at 25176, and you can't level up past that without actually fighting. I agree with the other reviewer though, because there should be reasons for being a certain ship. Maybe like Borgs have high attacks but really slow engines and shields, while Klingons are really fast. Just an idea, good game though!
*** This has the potential of being one of the best ST battle games ever, but it still needs some work (I really like the idea of all the different ship types you can choose from -- good idea there). It needs work on these: 1) I've played enough to earn Lt. JG experience, yet I'm still a Cadet. 2) Realistically, the Simulated Game will be played more often (I know that _I_ don't have time to beam games back and forth with others), so the rank restrictions are a disappointment. 3) Regardless of rank, to be more realistic, the different ships should have different settings (i.e. the Borg ships should be WAY more powerful than the others). Add some type of damage control on top of the above suggestions, and this game would really kick butt! Overall, nice initial release.
DB (Pilot-DB) v1.0.4
Pilot-DB is a FREE flat-file database, like ThinkDB or JFile.
***** Incredible database product. It has all the capabilities that most DB applications have and it's easy & convenient. Works great!
***** I am a database junkie, and use them for everything. Few problems in life can't be solved by a decent database. I love this program and use it all the time. I would rate it quite high in form, function, and flexibility, three things that can make a program stand out in a crowd.
***** Man, am I impressed! For a software still under development it is so-o-o nice! After trying it extensively for several days I deleted MobileDB Lite for good, since DB completely supports MobileDB format, and FAR better in any sense. It's flexible, powerful, and very stable (not a single crash so far). For anyone who needs a DB program it's a must-have. Sure beats similar commercial and shareware progs.
***** This program is a great flat-file database tool! It's small, fast and simple. There are also tools available to build to DB format too from the PC and install them as PDBs.
***** Excellent indeed. But sometimes it results in soft reset after editing several records. One more thing, how can I get rid of the green highlight? It hurts readability!
***** Thanks so much for making it freeware! Finally nice to get rid of J-File and the annoying register screens.
***** This program is incredible ... I first got V. 0.31 from a friend, and it has since become one of the most-used programs on my PDA ... Minor quibble: The large icon looks bad on my m105. Change it back to the .31 icon :D
***** It's great, i´m using this database. It doesnt have problems althougt it's in development
***** What a Software!!! Wonderfull. The only thing I miss: a documentation about the MetaFile-Options. I work by "try und error" at the moment. But all in all: a very good software!
***** Easy, nice and powerfull. Really a must to have.
***** One of the best databases even on development stage, very stable, small. I am also very impresed after observing fortcoming features on sourceforge.net, such as filters, note and drop down fields. Thanks a lot for great job. Must have for any palm professional.
***** Great freeware. Simple enough even for the novice to use. Accepts as many database fields as one wishes. The colour support is a nice touch. There are also separate tools available to convert files from the CSV format to PDB format and vice versa to facilitate exchange of information between your PC and the Palm. Very highly recommended.
***** Really very good app! About the only thing that I can complain about is that very long fields (longer than 1 page fields) are not displayed completely in record edit view. Really hope that Ram chip support will arrive soon, since I do have some huge databases that currently takes all my memory. :(
***** Great database program at such a great price, FREE! This program rocks compared to Mobiledb or JFile. It continues to improve. It has so many features which makes it very versital. Great plug-in features. Now I don't need MobileDB reader and I can read Jfile db. Not only, you can convert those databases to DB format. It does have some memory problems, but just hitting the reset pit and your back in business again. Hey, it's free!
***** That's GREAT!
***** This program is wonderful! Just what I have been looking for in a Palm application. Thanks for making it (and fixing that bug that required a hard-reset ;)
***** Simples, versatil, completo e meuito, assim é o DB e para melhorar ainda mais é freeware, eu e meu amigo Luciano estamos usando e descobrindo novas e mais novas possibilidades para a ferramenta DB, parabéns ao seu criador e aos colaboradores "Brasil".
***** Brilliant *AND* free - enough said ...oh no - wait: "Thank You!" :)
***** Now, I can do information gathering with a descent Palm and Free database. Support to Free Software concept.
**** Very good database. However, scripting language should be easier. Also, there should be a check box field (as in handy shopper). Great as freeware. I use it everyday.
**** Simply wonderful... it even allows scripts! Also, you can relate table (ie. database) from one table. It is so small yet so useful.
**** Works well on the Treo 270 but it would be nice if:
**** First version crashed my Visor Prism. Previous update works fine, but doesnt load Jfile. Otherwise a great DB program.
*** Good program, but everytime I try to create a new database, I get a crash at Line 4450 of MemoryMgr c. This occurs on a TRG Pro with Palm OS 3.53. On my Sony CLIE the program will let me create databases. Who knows?
** I loaded it again on my Visor Prism after a series of crashes to see if there was hope. Another crash. Not being a masochist, I dumped the app for good.
* I am very pleased with the previous version of DB but, this latest version is the first application I have ever installed that required me to do a hard reset. The program worked for about five minutes and then locked up. I look forward to a revised version.
* Optimist by heart... But.. I had to reset my m500 and had to delete the appl. I did not succeed in a proper install!
MonoPalm (eng) v1.1.2 e
MonoPalm is a PalmOS version of the monopoly game.
***** Love it! Love it! Yes, a grayscale version would be good. Yes, a Palm opponent would be good. But, it is a great version.
***** Excellent game...very well written. I fell in love with it when I saw the first release French version. Glad to see the English version with improvements! Keep up the good work!!!
***** Brovo, big Monopoly fan and I've been waiting for this game all my life. Job well done. Grayscale support (if possible) would be nice.
***** Its a great program. Is it me or are you not able to play against the computer?
***** HEY! I am sure that this game would be good because it looks good, yet it does not work with my TREO 90... There might be a bug that needs fixed!!
***** If any of you grayscalers can make a better one than do it. Otherwise spend a little money and buy a color pda!
***** WOW! Great looking screens (on Sony T615) somehow pack in lots of information without looking crowded. Excellent as is, but with a computer opponent I'd never put it down...
***** Can't thank the author enough for the English language version both UK and US boards (I did get by with the French but now it's really enjoyable for more people). Can't wait for ability to play against the Palm.
***** Please, for us non-color, OS 3.3 users in school with not enough cash for a IIIc, make a grayscale version; how else am i going to survive lecture?
***** This is an exceptionally clever version of the Monoploy game. In French, it's challenging and makes learning the language a bit more fun for me. Thank you so much.
***** Although it is difficult with no color Palm, I think it is excellent and very well done. Please, write me when you finish the gray scale version. I will be pleased to try it. Thank you.
***** Needs Grayscale.
**** I concur. Need a greyscale version for all us who can't or don't want to see colour :) Good work. Keep it up.
**** This is an awesome game. All you grayscalers need to quit whining and get color.
**** Great and all but you should make it for gray scale. I have a IIIc but I see lots of people wish it had a gray scale. And I once had a IIIx.
**** Love the game ~ better than Handmark's Monopoly (especially the price!) -- greyscale *compatibility* wouldn't hurt... the screen bitdepth should just be set to 16 greys instead of 2 shades.
**** Good job. I enjoy playing. But:
**** Very cool for all color palm pilots way better than the board game version of monopoly! With the palm ersion you will never have to worry about losing the pieces or the dices or the houses and hotels.
**** This is a great free Monopoly Game.
*** This game doesn't work on my Treo 90, I loaded it and every time I tried to open it it resets my treo. It looks good though, but why can't I open it? Any other Treo 90 having problems?
*** Looks good, but needs a grey version.
*** Crashes the Treo 270 also.
** I love the game monopoly, but this game is only good with color as i can see. I you could discuss making a gray scale version of this game I would really appreciate it. Thanx.
** I have tried to download this game several times onto my Sony Clie v. N760C, and the only screen that comes up is the actual board, nothing else comes up...any suggestions?? Thanks
** That would be so fun, but please make it in grey.
** You NEED a greyscale verson for palm os v3.0 or at least 3.1 for me to see this game, please make a greyscale version, I would reallly really like it. Thanx, bye.
SFCave v0.4
A simple, deceptively addictive game involving guiding a ribbon through a cave filled with obstacles.
***** Very good game There is a Color version look for ASCave here at freewarepalm.
***** The best game I have ever seen for the Palm. Unbeliavably addictive.
***** It is the greatest game in black and white I have ever played, but I would like to know if there is a color version.
***** I love this game, its great. is there any news on a color version?
***** We don't need another 3D raytracing engined multiplayer hyperrealistic action-strategy internet-multiplayer simulator-game. We need just small ideas, like this one-button gravity-control.
***** Once I start I cannot put this game down. The only time it stops is when the battery dies.
***** If you don't give this a five star rating you must have rocks in your head! Best game ever! Warning: you will find yourself playing at 1 am in the morning, so be careful when you start to play!
***** Hands down the single best palm game ever. If you don't agree, play it a few more times. You *will* fall in love with this game.
***** Never leave home without this! Many thanks.
***** This game stinks like computer class after a retard poops his pants.
***** Absolutely brilliant game with heavy addictive values. Kudos to the guys who wrote this short and sweet beauty.
***** I love this game and play it all the time.
***** This is the coolest Palm game I have ever seen. All I do with my Palm now is play SFCave!
***** Yeah, this game rocks. But a pause button would be nice; I have missed way too many lecture notes since I didn't want to set it down!
***** I love this game! This is probably the best game I got in my Sony Clie handheld.
***** Cool! This game is probably one of the best palm games ever! I must say, the lack of graphics isn't too bad a letdown!
***** One of the gratest games for palm. p.s - where can I get the color virsion?
***** When you started you just CANT stop! :-)
***** Really good simple game, it's up there with DopeWars and BigTwo.
***** Very good game. Highly addictive. Try to beat 14,000 points.
***** Awsome game! I rent my Palm out at school so other people can play it. WARNING: People playing this game become anti-social!
***** I don't know how they do it, this game is amazing!
**** Certainly the most adictive game I've played on a Palm. My only gripe is that I can't play this version on a Tungsten T as it runs too fast and is impossible to control. I can slow it down by running a 3rd party tool, but then it's too jerky. This game is the only reason I wish I still had my Palm Vx :-)
**** Its a good game, but dont get your friends into it..... P.S (last review) 14,000 points has been beaten...many a times over....try 21,345.....
** WooHoo... It's all most as exciting as whatching paint dry!
IQ3D v0.8
Ion's quest 3D.
***** Ilove this game it runs great on my IIIc with fastcpu enabled or disabled. I hope you finish the full version soon though! Great job. I think its better than Deity3D because i cant find Deity3D anywhere.
***** This is the absolute best palm game I've ever played. Needs a full freeware version though.
***** Funny thing is, this game works on my COLOR visor PRISM despite other reviews.
***** This game is the best game I have ever played on my visor in my entire life the graffics are stuning what program did you use to make it. PS: hurry with the next version.
***** This is a terrific game. I have only been playing it for 45 seconds, and I've absolutely fallen in love w/ it. I love the great grahpics and you can get a variety of different weapons: Pistol, machine gun, shotgun, plasma, grenades, other explosives... This is a must have for James Bond fans like me!
***** Wow! This beats the living crap out of ANY other 3D shooter for palm in controls, graphics, and gameplay. It is also the smallest (i.e. deity3d is around 350k). I can't wait until the full version comes out, I will pay for it!
***** Ecxellent 3d game. Iv'e played all the palm OS FPS games. This is the best over Raygin,Dreadling,Deity3d and any others. Great effects and good stable 3d enginge.
***** One of the greatest looking games on the palm ever! Not to mention a great shooter to play on the palm. But finish the game! It's been in development for over a year now!
***** This is awsome! The graphics are great, and everything's rendered really fast, there's no need of additional overclocking tools or things like that. To some reviewers here: the older versions didn't support color devices, read the description before posting! It works great on my m515 - i'd like some color though... in a future update?
***** Download id. Play id. Emjoy id ;) I have never seen a better game before on my m105. Gratulation! Just rule id ;)
***** Excellent.
***** Worked fine on my visor, awesome download, great, wait no, incredible graphics for the palm. Controls are simple, ues forward skroll keys to go forward and back, use side buttons to turn and fire. This game rules!
***** Great game! Rather short but I realize that this is a beta version. I played it on a Handspring Visor Deluxe with few problems. It did require a soft reset (opened application and screen went blank and locked up, requiring a soft reset) at one point but that was it. I am looking forward to the color version so I can play this on my Handspring Prism.
***** Runs fine on my Clie 320. Very impressive.
***** The coolest graphics ever on a palm that I have seen. Really fun. Kind of challenging at first but awesome game.
*****
**** Good game. Good graphics. Good effects. But...:
**** I have a Palm IIIxe, and this works fine. Haven't played it much but good graphics for the Palm. It probably is a very short game.
**** Good 3d engine, looks like it was ported over from pc, works fine on my m100 hopefully though they will add sound for the second demo. Quality programming is what the palm needs.
**** I hope will be next version with sound and with better action.
*** Definitely NOT the best 3D engine out there. Some cool effects but the engine is somewhat slow. Runs (now) on color devices but no color in the game. Deity3D blows this away (IQ3D is Wolfenstein to Deity3D is Doom). I saw MasterThief3D today on PIC and it has high res and color and looked incredible!!!
*** Games looks awosme, but it crashed by palm 505, wish I could run it....
* It wont even try to work on a color model.
* Looks awesome, but it crashed my clie 320 (fatal error).
* This also crashed my Visor, dont download!
Newpen v1.4
Newpen allows you to use the screen as the graffiti area instead of silkscreen.
***** Just got a second-hand Palm Vx - installed Newpen - works fine! I'm also going to install in on my Tungsten T.
***** Works great on my M125! I thank the author.
***** Wow - excellent utility! Works fine on my Tungsten T, unlike the poster below. To use it just click on the square around the shift arrow to activate, drag lower right to upper left to perform shifted punctuation.
***** Excelent! MUST have.
***** All I can say is wow. This program does it. I have a Treo 90, and it doesn't have a backlit keyboard, so this is great for night use. Easy to use, better than Graffiti Anywhere, and it's tiny!! Good job with this program!
***** This works well on my Treo, the only exception being numeric input which doesn't work on the Treo's 3.5.2 OS. After enabling NewPen, I can turn graffiti input on or off by tapping the screen for 2 seconds. The command bar support works in many applications, that lets me turn graffiti mode on or off by tapping where the shift icon is usually displayed at the bottom of the screen.
***** Fantastic utility. This will be VERY helpful when jotting a note in the dark. In a short time it has helped me improve my Graffiti by actually seeing the strokes. Can't believe this is free!
***** This is GREAT. Works even better than the version of ScreenWrite I had tried prior and this one is free! No bugs found while using Sony 615, hopefully when I upgrade to the Palm Tungsten I will be able to use this fine peice of software.
***** Once again Nagamatu advances to distinguish himself with his latest release of Newpen 1.4, featuring the addition of a hack version! This utility/hack is a must-have. Just gets better and better with every new version.
***** This app just gets better! Seeing my stylus strokes has really helped my sloppy input, and turning it on and off is easier too. Well done!
***** I've been using this on my Treo 90 for a couple of days and it works very well. For some reason, it seems more accurate than my old Palm VX did normally, but it could be the screen is different or something. This has a benefit for a lot of devices that already have a graffiti area: Writing on the backlit area in the dark when your normal graffiti area is dark.
***** Great concept! Overcomes the lack of a backlit keyboard on the HS Treo 180. Is very slow recognising keystrokes with DocsToGo from Dataviz. Other than that, EXCELLENT :)
***** This is a great app. Use it on my Treo 90 and a m515 and it works great on both. Keep up the good work.
**** Work sometimes on my clié T 425, fantastic idea, will send you a chocolate box for this one ;-)
**** I used it on my treo 600, and really works, guys with treo´s stop looking for appz, this is it!!!
**** Installed on both Handera330 and a Sony PEG SL10. Worked well on the Handera,but even better on the Sony, which is helpful given the smaller screen and lack of a virtual graffitti area. Highly recommend this with one caveat: Best to disable when not entering significant amounts of data as the digitizer becomes optimized for graffitti input not menu selection and you often end up activating puncuation when trying to tap a menu item.
**** Fouded the bug, the small one: newpwn seems to interfere with the menu sometimes, the agenda order is slightly disturbed when newpen is active, even if you are not using it, but the idea is still fantastic :-)
**** [Palm V upgraded 8MB and OS 4.1] Program works OK on the upgraded Palm V. Performance in MemoPad is very good, but it can interfere with other applications if not switched off. Reason for this might be the memory upgrade or upgrade-plus-OS. On the Palm Vx, works fine with no problems.
**** As mentioned before it's been great. However, just installed on the new Tungsten T Palm and I cannot get it to work. Hopefully a small tweak by the developer can fix this. This app is made for the Tungsten T.
*** It's a good program, but when I put it on my m100, it messed up the hotsync. I kept having to reset my palm.
*** Installed on Visor Prism. Works okay, but no numbers. Problem is that even after turning it off. I had problems with being able to properly click menus as the digitizer was not hitting my selection. For example in Memo Pad, couldnt select Delete Memo in the menu,even with program turned off.
*** Program works fine. However, when I hotsync, I get a fatal alert: MemoryMgr c. Line 4450, Invalid chunk ptr. Installed it on a Visor Prism, Palm OS 3.5.2v.15, also have some hacks installed like Afterburner, ClockPop. Also am running QuickBits.
*** Good program... it's just too bad it requires a newer Palm (OS 3.5). Those of use with older Palms in K12 schools could really use a program like this to help our students master Graffiti.
** Looks great, but is it possible to make a program like this for my VII, or my 3x basically for a grayscale user??
* It just didn't work on my m505... =(
Z-Digitizer v1.1
If you have a digitizer problem this program may help.
***** What a hero, such a simple solution...I tried digifix for my palmVx and it did nothing, but this worked in 30seconds...did exactly what it said on the label. Thank you thank you thank you!!
***** I just wish I had found this sooner! Thank you SO MUCH!!
***** After a wrong app on my Palm V, ending in a 'fatal exception' the problem started. That 1.5 cm broke my life ... But this app made me live again. I need to have it available after a soft-reset otherwise... This is what we name a real worthwhile freeware app that is a must. Perfect. Brilliant. (You should start working @ Palm!) Thanks!
***** THANKS ! THANKS ! It makes all the difference !! Really works !
***** What a lifesaver! This instantly took care of the annoying problem that I have with two Palm Vx. Thanks a lot for a wonderful application.
***** Absolut genial! Endlich gibt es eine Moeglichkeit ueber eine Taste den Digitizer zu starten. Herzlichsten Dank, dieses Tool hat die Welt wirklich gebraucht.
***** I've been doing hard resets on my Vx regularly to fix my digitizer, but with this app a soft reset will do! Only drawback is that now I have no excuse to get a new palm ;-) Thanks!!
***** Simple. And effective. Thanks for creating a little program that solves a very big headache. The drift was so bad that I had no way to access the digitizer without this fix.
***** Wirklich ein gutes Werkzeug. Herzlichen Dank.
***** You should be sanctified. That was the only way to have my Palm working. FOR PALM: you have the most Idiot software engineers in the world! How stupid is to give access to digitiger calibrazion only throu digitiger itself!
***** Merci mon dieu! ce petit truc est génial!
***** Thank you, it helps me to reanimate my Palm Vx.
***** Oh my god. Whoever made this is a kind person. Thank you so much... this app is great!
***** Merci beaucoup!! Thanks :-)
***** Thank god I found this little aplication. It was a life saver. Now I have a Palm again. Thank you very much!!
***** Thank you so much for this patch. My digitizer went crazy. After a few hours I found this life saver! Just wonderful!
***** You are a life saver. This is exactly what I needed to fix my Palm Vx.
***** Oh yeah, this is exactly what I was looking for, I actually considered just throwing my PalmV away. I wonder why this happens to so many people, makes you wonder if Palm didn't do this on purpose so that people would go out and buy new ones...
***** Like the others, it saved my Palm from being thrown out. I thought I had an excuse to buy another one but because of this software, works great!
***** So small and yet so good! Great job! I was about to throw my palm away, now I can keep another couple of years...
***** Thank you so much! You saved my palm from beeing trashed.
***** WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! This program has saved my palm pilot from the garbage heap. I have been struggling for months with not being able to digitzie my palm. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
***** This is an excellent tool. I wish I had found it earlier, it would have saved me a lot of time trying to work out how to solve this annoying problem. It also saves me from getting a new palm ... for the time being.
**** Just put it on and tried it out. Looks like it is a great little headache saver for when your digitisation is so far out of whack, you can't even get close to opening digitizer in prefs.
Tide Tool v2.2
Tide Tool displays tide and current graphs and tables for over 6900 locations worldwide.
***** A wonderful tool for anyone who enjoys the water. Accurate and intuitive.
***** Better and easier than looking throught the newspaper to figure out when the best time to go diving is.
***** This program is great for letting us know when the tides are due (not to mention sunrise & sunset) in Coastal Louisiana. I also love the graphics, especially for the Bay of Fundy region!
***** Awesome! tool, and very accurate to within a few minutes in the New York, Long Island, New Jersey area.
***** Your tool is fantastic, and is the "ONLY" accurate table at the first of the year when local books aren't available, and the newspaper seems to print last year's info. Way to go!!!
***** If you really need accurate tidal forecasts, or you're like me and use it maybe once a month, this is a great program. Accurate, easy to use, and only 150k with a single site loaded, this program is great.
***** At a glance knowing the tide level makes it easy to load and/or unload my boat at the marina. Also knowing the sun rise and setting time is great for my business.
***** I'm in the film industry and this program is a huge bonus when planning shoots. I get accurate information on Sunrise & Set and the tides for the various areas we work in. Hugely recommended to every Palm user.
***** Sailing the coastal waters from Zierikzee, Holland, this is a very useful tool. Only very minor differences compared to the official Dutch tables and graphs. Accurate enough if you want to keep at least one meter of water under your keel. It is a pity there is no information for UK waters. Will information on currents become available at a later date ?
***** Dear Walt, I live in Vlissingen near the River Scheldt and walks a lot with my dogs on the beach. The tide is very important, because if the tide is high, You can't walk there. It is very accurate, but there is a different Sealevel. Your's is at 0 meters, but ours is at NAP, which means that there is a difference of 2.30 m. I have to calculate the NAP level. So your 4.80 meters is 2.50 + and your 0,60 cm is 1.70 -. I would be glad if it was possible to adjust the sealevel to a local level. I would relie on it while sailing. Thanks for avoiding a lot of tables, every year again.
***** I manage a boatyard and will confirm that this program is as good a tide program as there is available, regardless of operating systems. Tide calenders are based on logrythmic calculations, and will surely vary to some extent withgeographic anolomalies. One thing that will not vary is the relative heighth of the tide from one day to the next. An earlier review said "not good enough for sailing". Well, this program is as good as any not cross checked at a very specific location to account for local differentiation (most are not).
***** I've been using this nifty app for the past several months to determine when to drag my small boat out to the launch ramp on the Washington coast. I'm getting ready to launch while vessels that missed the channel by a couple of feet are grounded, waiting for the rising tide. This one is a dandy and a must-have for any coastal boat owner.
***** Very Cool! The tide graphic looks great. Thanks!
***** This program is very good and easy to use. If the newer version included the sun/moon geomatric angle, it is superb! The zone dbase can be smaller by scale down to less country, which is quite important to less RAM Palm (2MB).
***** A little jewel. Wouldn't go to a coast without it!
***** This program is awsome. If you travel to a coast and wonder when the tides are in/out, locals don't care, this is ideal for beachcombers. Sunrise/sunset information, with hour of daylight is also useful for tourists. The graphic display of tide chart is also pretty cool. Highly recomended.
***** I will need an update for the years after 2031 !!!!!
***** Very good application.
***** A truly elegant application that works great on my Palm m505.
***** Great program for the palm.
***** Excellent! The graphs are great. Data seems to be accurate. Figures out sunrise and sunset, moonrise and moonset, and moon phases as well. Worth a look even if you don't care about tides. Highly recommended.
***** Terrific program that correctly predicts tides at many locations.
**** Well writen program but it is not precise enough for sailing. That´s what I can tell you for the european seas.
**** Why the date of moon phases for Hong Kong are not the same date as that indicated by the Hong Kong government's??
HappyDays v2.33
HappyDays will help you remember the birthdays and anniversaries of your friends and family members.
***** Excellent! A must have software!Very useful too for remembering relatives and friends who celebrate their lunar birthdays!
***** Excellent! Good documentation too. A must for anyone who can't afford to miss those special days....
***** Great to keep track of all those b'days and anniversaries!! The alarm feature is super, helps if you have to get a card/present mailed out in time...Recommend to everyone :o)
***** Great program for you to follow birthdays and special dates. Simple to use: first, on "Adress/Option/Rename Custom Fields" change the "Custom 1" to Birthday. From now on when you input a date on that field it will appear on the Happyday. Enjoy!
***** This tool is a must!
***** Exellent one. Must have.
***** It appears to be excellent by reading its utilities. Franky I don't know how to use it. Can anybody guide me. I have it on my Palm IIIxe.
***** One of my staple palm programs. Improvements keep coming, yet the initial concept stays the same. excellent job!
***** Still an excellent app. It's been so long since I used it, when I downloaded the new version, I saw a blank screen and thought I lost everything, BUT I figured it out and everything is fine!
***** This is one of the few must-have programs for anyone who has friends & family (heh)! HappyDays reminds me of birthdays 3 days before they occur (customisable of course), and is a lifesaver for those important birthdays and anniversaries!
***** Love the program =) Still works great on my Palm V and Palm M515...
***** This is an excellent program, and is great for 'remembering' all of those birthdays/anniversaries/etc.
***** Since v1.xx, it's a MUST in my TRGpro.
***** One of the most useful programs I have. Thank You!!
***** A Must to Have!!!
***** It's a MUST, congrats!! I never forgot a Happy day :)
***** It is excellent and it does even better than other paid programs.
***** It's really reminds me!
***** Thank You for such a wonderful tool. It is one tool you don't want to be without.
**** Programma molto carino, specialmente per chi come me, dimentica spesso i compleanni degli altri! E' semplice da usare e da configurare. Il fatto che sia in inglese non compromette la sua funzionalità inquanto il campo della rubrica che va rinominato "birthday", lo si puo' scrivere anche in Italiano..."compleanno"! Basta poi configurare anche le opzioni del software e mettere "compleanno" anche li.
**** :-) Simple design...Very valuable. I like the part that I do not have to maintain a *separate* database. It just "picks" info from your "address" book. This is how utilities should be. :-( I don't like the fact that it sometimes bombs out on me when I do a 'Find' on the palm. I use Palm m500 Palm OS 4.1p. Removing the app and reinstalling seems to resolve sometimes...obviously not a good thing. :-| I am going to re-install the app today...once more. I am keeping my fingers 'X'ed.
**** This is the best program of its kind! I would have given it 5 if there would have been possible to give it 5,5. It is still a bit tricky to remember how to enter custom events, with all the ",:s","*:s" and spaces in order. Had there been a screen where you could click on a person in the contacts list, and then fill in one field with the name of the event and another with the date, it would have been a 5.
**** I had such hope, it really is a great program; unfortunately, it kept freezing my PDA, requiring a soft reboot everytime. I had to remove the software. i use an oldy but goody PDA - Visor Deluxe.
**** This software is a MUST for Palm OS 4.1 or below users. For me it misses one star since I'd like another notification format in my Datebook and I don't whether it's possbile.
Projects v1.8.2
With projects you can manage more than just one todo list like in the built-in todo app.
***** Couldn't agree more than the others. This program is GREAT. Makes me easier to handle numerous pending tasks that belong to different projects and "projects". Kudos to the author!
***** Mr. Novotnik tweaked this program to includes some of my suggestion to allow me to track physican candidates per contract. It works great for me. I didn't need the elaborate Program Management programs that are out there. This suits my needs perfectly and it is free. My hat is off to Mr. Novotnik.
***** I havent used it cause I saw a the drop down box made my thing get reseted using the hole in the back. NOT nice. Im a beginner so I got really scared that my shit got broken. LUCKILY all my data was intact. Some one else had the same problem. "SEE DOWN below 6 comments or so-------->"
***** The best ToDo replacement I have seen so far! Thanks for making it free!
***** It works as advertised -- great software and an author who will listen to constructive feedback and implement it! (He added the ability to rename projects for me, thanks!)
***** Thank you for no nonsense important software that works...and freeware to boot! Very impressive!
***** Excellent application for business. Expecially it is a freeware. Thanks so much to the author to create this application.
***** This is an excellent program. I downloaded it for my Palm IIIe, and it works great. Better than the ToDo program that comes with the Palm.
***** Great Program! I would love to see a desktop viewer / editor for the project lists so that it would sync with the Palm...
***** The rare quality about this program is that its todo, memo and note elements are elegantly, cleanly and coherently related within each project. I'd been searching for a good project tracking app but there was always a glaring problem with each one...except this. I just wish an expenses module would be integrated like the others. Then Pete would have a super killer app.
***** Projects is already very easy to use and does the job really well. I'd like to use it not only to list the work yet to be done on a project, but also notes about what has happened, e.g. when a certain decision was made, when something happened, etc. So instead of one note per project, I'd like a list, so that I can do a datetimestamp on the first line of a note, and then have it show up in a note list as a sort of project journal. For now though, I can just use the single note and add to the end of it. Thanks for Projects Peter!
***** This is one of THE BEST programs available for the Palm. If you are organizing projects or simply want to organize your life - you should download this program!
***** As a project manager, this kind of program helps me a lot to monitor multiple on going project. Thanks!!!
***** Excellent product! Absolutely THE BEST application on my Palm! A Desktop app version would move it to the Excellent++!!
***** Great app! One of the essentials for anyone working on multiple projects/clients and multiple to dos! I hope future updates include integration with To Do or Datebook and a way to input the time it took to complete a tasks (hours, minutes).
***** Fantastic! Very useful for keeping track of correspondence and other information related to my job search. I was using BrainForest, which I like for other things, but this is better for my job search.
***** One of the most useful apps on my Visor by far - and its free !
***** I use PROJECTS everyday in the morning, in the afternoon and at night. Thank you Peter.
**** Works perfectly on my Handera 330. Thanks for the work. I really appreciate your efforts. One thing I would like to see, unless I've missed it, is a way to set an alarm for a particular project's to do items. Thanks again.
**** Missing alarms to be excellent!!
**** Good program. One snag seems to be a coorupted 'STATUS' drop down list. I run a visor with 3.x OS. Otherwise very useful program.
**** Good program. Much better than To Do. Wish it integrated with To Do and Date Book though.
**** Love the program, I just don't know how to print out the lists. Installed on a Treo 600. Help me if anyone knows how.
**** Works great now that the deletion bug has been fixed.
GridLock v1.32
GridLock is a Freeware security application designed to simplify, speed up and increase the security of your Palm device without using text based passwords.
***** Very good! I second the proposal that contact information on the opening screen would make this the perfect security app!
***** I love it! The only improvement I'd suggest is that when it displays the grid upon power-up, it also provides 2 lines at the bottom to put your name and contact number in case someone finds it. Otherwise, great program.
***** Great, easy and works perfectly on my Zire.
***** I have to say that this program is excellent. It allows you to lock your PalmOS machine with confidence. More importantly, you can unlock it QUICKLY for access. It is so fast, that I have it lock the minute I turn it off.
***** Great Software! Genial, simple, powerful and fast! :] Compliments to the author.
***** A great security program for those graphically oriented. Nothing compares to gridlock where one can simply remember a pattern to unlock your machine. Highly recommended....
***** It does work with Treo Smartphones - I had a Hack which was causing GridLock some troubles.
***** Did a Back Flip for this Grid Lock..So easy to use and works fine on my Visor. Deleated all the rest of security programs.This ones it for ease of operation and simplicity. Thanks, Jack
***** Love it but the documentation should tell you that if you pick your own turn-off time, "Power" no longer locks the unit (TREO 90). With no turn-off time, it *does* shut off (about 5 minutes) and the power button locks it too. I like the 5 minutes so I'm a happy camper!
***** This amasing little App is the EASIEST security App I have ever tried!!!!!!
***** This is the best security program available so far thank you. Este es el mejor programa para seguridad de su palm pilot uselo.
***** Excellent program!! I have used this for about 2months now and it is so easy to use. At only 16K it uses so little memory, yet provide so much security.
***** Great app! I had a line of co-workers waiting for me to beam it to them after doing a 5 second demonstration. This makes it simple to secure your Palm, no clunky text passwords.
***** I have a need for Palm security, but I never liked having to enter a password when powering on my Visor. Gridlock is an Outstanding (and FREE) solution. Thank you very much for writing this quality application and making it available for free, I really love it.
**** Wonderful program, really great. So far I found only a small problem. Let's say that I set 5 appointments then I lock my Palm. During the day these appointments ring but I simply press ok and I turn off the device. Well, in the evening, if I turn on again, I've to insert the "GridCode" 6 times, one for each alarm and one for access. I hope this will be solved in version 1.2 Anyway I suggest this program to everyone, it really deerves... :]
**** Worked on my Sony NR70v but NOT on my Sony NX70v!!! So it has NOT full OS 5 compatibility...
**** This is a great app, one of the best for security - very simple and doesn't involve graffiti! Unfortunately it is no longer freeware - a nag screen comes up every so often.
**** I tried a number of security apps... I wanted someting that would be easy enough that I'd actually use. Gridlock was the easiest and most reliable non-preinstalled app. It's easy to use.... easy to re-assign passwords to... and allows a time-delay option, so I can turn the comp on and off for a few minutes without having to unlock the comp.
*** Great idea, but... "GridLock is compatible with all Palm devices ranging from OS3 to OS5." Doesn't work with Handspring Treo Smartphones (OS3.5H4).
*** GridLock is a wonderful application. Too bad, it's no more freeware... :\
* Doesn't work for my m125.
* Version 1.31 does not work for Tungsten C. It gives a Fatal Alert @ Emul68KMain.c, Line:403, illegal instruction 0EF0 at address 00000014, then requires a hard reset to fix.
* This installed fine on my Visor (PalmOS 3.1H3), but after it was enabled the visor just kept restarting, showing me the palm logo and restarting. I had to do a hard reset and restore from backup.
* Does not work with visorphone on the handspring platinum.
snapCalc v1.7
SnapCalc is a HackMaster plug-in that allows you to pop up a basic calculator from within any PalmOS® application, do some calculations, and, if you choose, copy the result to the underlying application.
***** Not much I can say that hasn't been said already... very good idea, and very well executed. Thanks so much.
***** Great little application, simple yet so useful.
***** Awesome! One of the most helpful utilities I've downloaded in quite some time, and it's even free!! Thanks so much for such an excellent contribution to the user community!
***** Fast, easy, free and now in color!What's not to like? Thanks.
***** Very usefull, excellent handling, great look in color version, thanks for give it free !
***** VERY NICE app. One of the few hacks that works on a Treo with no grafitti area. Can you make a SnapMemo hack also? I tried to email, but I'm not on your recipient list. Thanks, Spammers! I get about 50-70 spams daily, so if you write, make sure the subject doesn't look like spam!
***** I couldn't believe my Tungsten E didn't come with a calculator...at all! I'm so glad I found this incredible app! It's the best simple calculator I found, free or otherwise. And the fact that I can pull it up anytime, anywhere makes it much better than the one Palm could have supplied me with anyway.
***** I used it on my earlier Palm m515 and Tungsten T and it was very useful, but on my new Tungsten T3 it does not work. I follow the installation information ok.
***** Have been using snapCalc since the beginning. Never leave home without it. Many thanks for making this a freeware.
***** Great app !!!!! Thank you very much.
***** Good calc, very handy, but can you do something for us with m515's color display to spruce it up alittle?
***** Very useful. A must-have for every palm!
***** Works great on my Handspring Visor Platinum with EVPlugBase. Also works on a Japanese Visor with X-Master. Much more convenient than the built-in calculator.
***** Excellent! I've had this hack with me since last year and now with this release it reconfirms this hack as a MUST-HAVE on ANY palm! Highly recommended - Used this on my IIIc, Vx, M505 and now on my M515 - never had any problems.
***** Otimo Hack ! Great ! Sugoi !
***** This is another great freeware prog; thanks Ling; now dispensed with the time delayed, un registered "pop up calc". use it all the time for my invoicing prog. One question; how do I work out and add the % value of a calculation for v.a.t. etc ?. Used on my Visor Neo.
***** Excellent hack. I forsee many uses for it. I haven't had a crash yet with my Visor Edge.
***** Very handy and simple little hack. Palm should have built something like this into their OS in the first place. Well done.
***** This is the hack I use the most. I love the the clipboard function. I can copy and paste the numbers straight into memos, etc. Works smoothly in my Visor Neo.
**** Great hack, but when I tap outside it, even with "pass tapping" option disabled, it crashes my m105.
**** Very effective and useful application. It's right!! Use it!!
*** SnapCalc does its job well. However, the hack does not have any documentation within itself that tells the user how to use it. Although that information is available in a separate text file, its absence from the hack is a major oversight.
** It's really lovely application except it crashes my IIIxe every time I try to use it. Please, debug it.
GLaunch v0.930
GLaunch is a small, easy to use (I hope), and 100% free launcher for Palm.
***** Works fine on my M500--very nice program!
***** Does not work on the Palm IIIc OS 3.5.3. Just flicks back to icon.
***** I had a little trouble making work at first. My wife was able to easily make it go due to her Palmspeak vocabulary and understanding the help section. Now, it runs perfectly! Thanks! BTW, I am running this on a Handspring TREO 90.
***** This works great on my IIIc with OS4.1 upgrade. I use the APPS button for Launcher III and the CALC button for Glaunch, great combination! No troubles, don't have any idea why anyone would have probs.
***** It doesn't work in my m125 b/w machine.
***** I love it. Compatibility issues solved and cache works great!
***** It won't launch (?) on my Vx, from either Launcher 3 or the original palm launcher. Am I missing something? Do I need to completely remove Launcher 3 before it will work? The "read-me" included in the download does not have any instructions. This looked like a something I could really use; my "memo" button is broken and I have the other buttons doing double duty. (I am also trying "Easy Launch" at the moment.)
***** Excellent upgrade--faster load (with cache on), and alpha listing of programs makes it easier to use. Thanks!
*** Very well in my palm m515. But it can't be set to the default launcher.
*** Great concept, but the loading time is way too long, like about 5-8 seconds !! Far too long, and should be <2 seconds really to be useful. Keep improving the loading time and it will be a marvellous program !
*** Doesn't work on my Tungsten T. But looks promising.
*** I load this app. into my M505 and whoop, it works quite well, offering me a intuitive and eye catching interface. Don't care much about the loading time. Thanks.
*** As a launcher this need improvement still. The program needs to be split into separate programs, a launcher, and a SEPARATE file program. The launcher, which currently is too slow still to be practical, as a stand alone program, would be great.
** Don't work in a b/w PDA!!!
* Fatal error on Visor Prism when selecting either Dbase or System. Since it crashed the two menu functions, can't do much more with the program for now.
* IT DOES NOE WORK MY TRG-PRO(OS3.52+J-OS4).
* Sorry it does not load on my M105 either. Pity it looks good - I hope you can address this problem.
* Doesn't work on my IIIc either.
* Won't launch on my palm IIIxe.
* Tried it out on my M100 and the POSE with m100 rom and didnt work on either. All it does is reload whatever window it is in. Shame to as I really liked the look of it. Email me when you get the bugs worked out.
* Unfortunately it won't work on the Visor Prism so far.
* Doesn't work on my Palm Vx PalmOS v4.1
* Doesn't work on my Visor Prism. If I click on the icon, it just reloads the Unfiled category. Doesn't launch the GLaunch at all.
Converter v2.2
Whether you're travelling and need to convert from celsius to fahrenheit, or if you're a scientist needing to convert radioactivity types, convert with ease, convert with Converter!
***** Simple, easy, incredibly handy. Exactly what I needed
***** This is DEFINITELY handy! Whoever designed this gets five stars from me! Thanks again... Now I don't have to figure out what 12 degrees celcius translates to!
***** Thanx for the great utility!
***** Installed on Tungsten W with no problems. I love it!
***** Splendid utility! Thank you, and congratulations to Mr. Marsh.
***** Very Good Software, it works GREAT! Thank You.
***** Wonderful tool for Palm. Thanks!
***** Fantastic. Easy to use. Runs perfectly.
***** Muy buena herramienta para Palm. Gracias!!!
***** Wow. A must, period! A tool that all engineer like me must have!
***** There should be a rating above EXCELLENT? Because this program is fantastic. Great variety of categories and units within each category. Great program, just what I was looking for.
***** Finally a converter that converts almost anything! And a snap to use too! Thanks!
***** One of the BEST utilities for the Palm. Hope that more categories are added in the future.
***** A must have for your PDA. Simply amazing tool to have.
***** Excellent Program and very easy to use. The newest update has so much more additional functions!! Thanks for the great work!
***** Great tool to have around for your palm!
**** I found that the shoe sizing is off in comparison to the shoe sizing marked on the actual shoes.(from us to european).
**** Great program! Just one comment, can't input more than 5 digits when converting numbers getting result (out of range).
**** It's a good tool. It only lacks (and I think it is a major fault at that) a Currency section. It would be great it could even be configurable! Then we woldn't need anything else in our Palms!!
**** Simplicity at its best.hope you create other palm programs.
**** This program has almost everything you could want in a units convertor. The only thing it seems to be lacking is the ability to convert currency. It is very easy to use and to find the units you wish to convert. Highly recommended!
*** I try to put known sizes in the converter for clothing and I get invalid answer. I think your program is very good except for this problem. I am using a Visor Platium.
getGSM v0.43
The program can be used to send short messages via your GSM-cellphone using the infrared-port of your Palm.
***** Thanks! It works perfectly with my Zire and Nokia 8310! Me using it in Singapore, Singtel network. To make it work, I changed the MessageCentre number to 1 of the following: SingTel Singapore +6596400001/+6596500001/+6598189999/+6596197777. For those whom are using other networks, you can easily search the Net for your service numbers. hmm... was suprised to find out that 3 bars worth of battery life is actually 39% left. woW!
***** Really good, it runs perfect with my palm m500 and Nokia 8310 in Czech republic. It is the only way to find out real level of battery.
***** Excellent for Palm Vx.
**** Works good with Nokia 6510.
**** Works fine with full-fledged 11-digit phone numbers, but doesnt understand voicestream's "500" number, through which you can send email...
**** I tried in Singapore. It works fine with my Nokia 8210, but not with my Samsung A100.
**** Faster when u need to send a lot of words but is there a way to store the phone numbers and the messages that send out?
**** It works on a Zire 71 and Tungsten C.
**** Here it is in English : ) The program makes an infrared connection to your GSM telephone and selects telephone as well as network information. Additionally short messages on the Palm can be written and transmitted.
*** Very goog idea for query Phone and network But too much problems with Infra Red interface with Motrola TimePort T260. So, for me this program is unusable.
*** Good, works with palm m105 and Siemens me45, but supports only international format of phone numbers. I have in addressbook all numbers in national format (eg. 123 456 789).
*** Didn't work with my Clie and 8250. Message seemed to be sent but was never received.
*** It works on my Palm IIIc.
** I can't use this software on my Palm M505 and Nokia 8250. Fatal Error which reset my Palm. Anyone can comment further ? Thanks.
** Ne marche pas avec le Nokia 8210 et Visor Edge - Doesn't work with Nokia 8210 and Visor Edge.
* Ne marche pas avec le nokia 6210. Doesn't work with the 6210 nokia.
* Can't work with my Palm IIIxe & NK8250. Message sent was never rec'd.
* Doesn't work properly with my palm v and nokia 6210. It retreives the phone information OK, but can't send messages (causes a fatal exception and resets the palm).
* It doesn't work with Palm Vx and Nokia 6210. The program can receive informations and is communicating with the phone. But the SMS never arrives...
* I've tried in Singapore, it doesn't work at all. The message seems sent out, but it cannot be received on the party.
* It does not work with my ericsson T39.
Ma Tirelire v1.0.8
Bank account manager, gestionnaire de comptes bancaires.
***** La meilleure application de l'heure. Simply the best financial application at this moment. Easy, ease, simple. Many language covered.
***** Great program. Ive used it for years and haven't had a problem. My only wish is that it would synch w/a desktop program of some sort. that would make data entry a little easier for me
***** tout a été pensé et réfléchit à point. Bravo ! Le rève absolu serait des comptes permettant de gérer des umprunts
***** Nagyszerü!!! I'm amazed. It's really well conceived, well developed and more: easy to be used by common people. The tutorial is also outstanding. En plus, j'ai apprecié votre humour, M. Maxime. Aguardo a próxima versão!
***** Je l'ai essayé, je l ai adopté !!! Ce prog est une merveille, complet, utile et facile, je l'ai découvert et je l'utilise depuis deux mois sans modération... en plus cette merveille est GRATUITE MERCI Monsieur Maxime :=))
***** Excellent home finance application. Lots of helpful & easy to use features. Highly recommended!!
***** Finally I found the account manager I've been looking for a long time !!! It's incredibly complete and it's free. Congratulations to software developers!!! --- Finalmente encontrei o gerenciador finaceiro após mese de procura. O programa é altamente completo e é gratuito. Meus parabés a seus desenvolvedores.
***** It's really the best I've tried out, and it's free ! I wished I found it before I spent 45 box on another software only half as good !!! I've had it for 1 year now and I relly love its ease of use.
***** Ottimo programma funziona perfettamente con Handspring Visor pro, anche il manuale è ottimo e l'italiano viene supportato.
***** É realmente o melhor programa de controle financeiro pessoal para palm, a versão 1.0.6 está mais leve e funcional, a transferência entre contas é perfeita, vc simplismente cria uma conta principal, a do seu salário, e trasfere através de débitos para as contas de cartão de crédito, crediários, etc... e os resumos por data atual ou até por projeções, dá para saber um saldo futuro,nota dez!!!!
***** Vraiment Super !!!
***** Prog muito legal !!!!!!! Tem praticamente tudo que vc precisa para controlar suas contas !!!!! :-)
***** C'est LE programme de finances, de plus en français qui manquait à ma panoplie. A recommander chaudement pour tous les palmistes francophones.
***** Ah oui, la moi je dis oui.
***** Hands down, the best free checkbook out there. Simply outstanding!
***** Le meilleur et le plus rapide, sans aucun doute.
***** I used for 2 years a similar program but Ma Tirelire has more options, more statistics, more visual informations ... Very useful!
***** Simplissime! génialisime! le meilleur que j'ai essayé....... et adopté
***** One of the Best Accounting Software.
**** That's really great! No it or eng documentationa available. It's a pity!!!
SmallBASIC v0.8.1
Free BASIC interpreter.
***** Excellent. A Liberty BASIC for Palm!
***** Great program for a 14 year old.
***** Incredible. The killer palm app.
***** I already programmed in Visual Basic 6. SB is really good and easy for 13yrs-old guy like me.
***** Very good program. Its stable, free, packed wth features. Great for beginner programmers.
***** If you wanna make personal aplications for your interests, this is the ideal tool for it, in my self i use it to create applications to simplify physics calcs, and math formulas.
***** I Love Smallbasic! It helped me learn the concepts of computer programming, and it is simple and easy for a 12 year old like me.I made lots of games, and now I'm on to programming in C.
***** Very nice. After 10 years I betray Perl and start again with Basic programming :) And of course: develop on PC, run on Palm. It is so easy.
***** That's the great tool I've ever tried and asy to use interface for a 14th year old guy like me.
***** This program does what it says! Accepts alternative syntax (e.g., ENDIF or FI). Structured syntax.
***** I love it!
***** Wow, this app is great, you must have to download it before it cost money!!
***** WOW!!!!! I have been looking for a QBasic type programmer for the Palm for a very long time. And this one is great. Best part is that when im bored I can make a new game! Pretty good for a 13 year old I say.
***** The best tool for palm ... a tool for making more tools :-))
***** This is the greatest palm app of all time..
***** Great GPL program. Now we need a lot of applications running with SmallBASIC. It's availible for Linux too!
***** Fine, a very good interpreter. Does there exist a compiler? Thanx
***** The best aplication!!! A must have.
***** Not since I plugged in my Sinclair ZX81 all those years ago have I been so happy! Fantastic program. One happy bunny over here :)
* When I used this on my Zire 71 it absouletly did not work. I tried it on my friend's and same result. Well it worked but telling it to print "Hello World!" would crash it 19/20 times. I got a Loop working once but then the next time I tried it crashed. I don't know why, am I doing something wrong?
Crash v2.11
You remember these nifty dialogs saying "Fatal Exception" or "DataMgr.c, Line 1234, Null pointer passed" with a nice looking "Reset" button at the bottom?
***** THANK-YOU SO MUCH! Works EXACTLY like I thought it would: wonderful. This has saved me from using the pins stuck in the side of the computer stand for reseting, or using my mom ear-ring... THANKS!
***** It's a great program! I love it! I use it on my Zire 71, and it's saved the day many days. Also, when a program loading off the card crashes, Crash just makes it quit back to the Launcher screen! Cool! Thanks for such a great program!
***** Works exactly as described. Has saved my behind more than once. Hopefully, you won't need it often. But you'll be glad you have it when you do. Terrific.
***** My M500 had a "fatal exception" so many times I quit using it. A friend told me about "Crash". I figured I might as well try it since I couldn't use my palm any way. IT WORKS!!! Now I am using my Palm every day and haven't lost any data. Quite often the crash reset screen pops up but then I can continue with my work. Thanks to the author for a great program.
***** Excellent program, it works perfectly and it's very usefull. :] Too bad I'm not able to contact the autor...
***** Just what I needed. That fatal error reset button never worked. Everything was frozen..now after many many fatal errors I'm happy to say that within seconds I was up and running. No more searching for paperclips! THANKS A MILLION!
***** Great Program! Works very good on my Palm Zire and saves me time from having to look for a paper clip and then poke the reset button. If only I could contact the creator ...
***** Ok, author contacted :] Great pgm... U can throw away your back-stylus, now reset we'll be ALWAYS automatic :]
***** I'm a newbie, i've used the crash app n it's great but i've problems using 1 of my other app, it gives a fatal exception message and crash did the reset auto. Why i'm not able to use launch the app? Is it because it clashes with crash or there's other reasons. Help me....Thanks.
***** This is simply a must-have. Worked great on my m125 and m130, and has saved the day on my Sony SJ33! Get it. Use it. Love it.
***** Crash is a really great program. "I love it!" Any one with a PDA needs to have this app.
***** This app is a Blessing. Thank you, David.
***** This is a good app, that you should install even by friends that dont know much about palm, hacks and resets. It is that selfworking, that it makes life easier even for people dont think much about the technical background and they wont be unsettled by pressing "mysterious" reset buttons! You´ll never get these "There is only on button on the screen saying "reset" what should I do without harming my palm?" phonecalls :).
***** Very great one. It will automatically reset your PALM without any key. Must have one.
***** A must have.
***** Don't ever miss it! A Must-Have Hack program in your handheld! Works well with my Palm m515 and HackMaster...
*** Not a bad idea, but I've encountered a crash, that 'Crash' tries to catch, and ends up corrupting data. Only way out was a hard reset. I was using SilverScreen III, and selecting a new font from fontbucket, chose one that bugged out. The rest, is history. Caused a fatal crash, screen went blank, and upon reset, constantly flashed the Palm logo screen, and required a hard reset. Previous to Crash, if I chose a buggy font, it would crash my palm, but nothing was lost. ** Use at your own risk **
*** Doesn't always work. My palm still requires me to sometimes poke it in the back or push reset on the screen after a fatal error even though crash is enabled. When it does work though, it's wonderfully helpful.
* Well, I installed this program so that it would reset my palm in 10 seconds if an error like that had happened. I installed it, and it made hackmaster give a fatal error...and i couldnt hit the reset button!
* This program does just what it says, it crashes your palm. I use a visor delux and just after I INSTALLED crash I got a fatal exeption. As always I tried the reset icon and it did NOT work. I then had to hard reset my Palm and then something weird happened. When I was on the home screen a ringing started to occur and my palm totaly locked up. I was THEN forced to do another HARD RESET and I lost ALL of my data! This program may work for some but beware! INSTALL AT YOUR OWN RISK
Ball 2
Ball 2 is an arcade style game. A ball is bounding freely.
***** Really fun. Runs well from my ClieNX80V's Memory Stick.
***** It rocks!!! In fact I recommend that you check out all of this authors other games - they all rock just as much!
***** Man, I LOVE this game!!! I've beaten it like ten times, but it never gets old. When my friends played it, they loved it too and the game ended up getting disributed all over the school!
***** This game is exellent! Its the only game by this author I actually managed to finish.
***** Awsome game butt very awsome and even awsomer!!!!!!!!
***** A must have game, I really can't get my hands off my Visor. Thanks friend.
***** Very cool game. Once I started I couldn't stop!!!! I cant believe its for free!!! Only 1 problem: on level 12.
***** This is a great game! Addictive, and just irritating enough to (almost) throw down my PDA in frustration! :) I loved the little challenges like having to eat the powerstar and quickly kill the baddies on some levels. The only bug I found was on level 24 - when trying to land on the floating bar, sometimes the ball would go right through it. Possibly another bug is that at the end of level 30, there seems to be no way to reset to level 1 - you have to delete and reinstall the game. On that note, a request would be to allow the user to choose the level to play. Thanks for a fun game!
***** Loved the game. Little hard though.
***** Excellent game! Can't believe this is freeware. I've seen commercialware of much less quality than this. This game is addictive, with just the perfect balance between strategy and action. Keep up the good work.
***** Excellent game, and very addictive. As previously mentioned there are some bugs, but they don't cause fatal exceptions, and are therefore easy to deal with.
***** Coolest, most addictive game I've played. Only bummer is the bug on Level 12, where the ball disappears into the Top of the screen. It's not a show stopper, but it makes it almost unfairly difficult to complete the level.
***** Superb game, makes you really think out a strategy to get all the goodies without getting killed first. At higher levels very little room for error, but it is possible to finish them. One bug found on Level 12, ball will sometimes fly off top of screen in certain areas, you must force quit and restart a new game. Otherwise, first-rate quality, can't put this one down, it's addictive!
***** I can't put this game down. It has really consumed my life... very addicting!!
***** Wow! My hands are getting sweaty and free!! :)
**** A++ Game. Is exciting and stragitic. One problem is that it is hard to see where the ball is when it is moving very fast, so you can't plan your route. Otherwise a great game.
**** A very challenging game!
*** A very cool game!!! Few bugs though.
*** Fun while it lasted but tooooo easy once you get the hang of it. Not enough levels. I also wish I could save the end screen as a screen saver, cool with all the balls going all over the place. But overall great value for the money!!
*** Pretty decent game, responds well. Also requres logic and quick thinking.
DiddleBug v2.90b
DiddleBug is an electronic PostIt note that you can set with an alarm that will remind you of appointments or other things.
***** Just loaded this on my Treo 600...I like it better than graffiti: quicker, easier to use. Great job, thank you!
***** v.2.60B3 continues the evolution of this stellar application by adding PalmOS5 Hi-Res support. My only quibble is that this version does not include support for the Tungsten's Vibrate/LED alarm features.
***** Thousands of ways to use it and it has not failed me yet. Thank you Mr. Diddle Bug. You rock!!!
***** Please bring back smear mode.
***** I LOVE IT!!! Just bought Sony Clie' T615C and was bummed to find out the Diddle Bug I beamed from my previous Palm V didn't show the sketch's on my Clie'. Located this upgrade today and immediately installed it. I do prefer the previous "absolute" alarm setting screen and the new Cust. Signal (Wind) doesn't seem to work. But those are minor, and I am so happy to have Diddle Bug again!!!
***** Great program. I use it for quick memos and appointments. I would like to see an extended screen like on the Palm m100. Also, I prefer the the alarm and countdown setup in the previous version. Don't like military time at all. Besides that last drawback, DiddleBug is an excellent program.
***** Regarding the alarm not working when the program is put on an expansion card> that's a limitation of PalmOS. There's nothing I can do about it. Smear mode> it was hurting usability. Unless more than one or to people complain, Smear mode will stay out.
***** This is the upgrade I've been looking for! Ever since I upgraded to a color Palm I wanted Diddlebug, but it would not work and who wants the monster footprint of Bugme! Thanks Mitch for a job well done. No problems (yet). Just one last thing, I was watching Palmgear for an update but found it here. I thought I would have found it there first. No problems mate. Download it!
***** "No one really uses" smear mode? Well I do! Was it hurting anything to have it in the program? If not, please put it back.
***** "I'd like to know what "alarms do not display properly when the titlebar is hidden" means, as I haven't been able to find any bug there. Maybe it just triggers on some devices? Please contact me on pputzer@users.sourceforge.net".
***** Great application! Just one thing is going wrong on my Palm Vx. When in "Alarm Set" I try to touch "Absolute..." I always get the same Fatal Alert: MemoryMgr.c, Line 4450 Invalid chunk ptr. What does mean? Could anybody explain? Thanks and sorry for a stupid question if it is stupid.
***** Some clarifications:
***** It's about time! Mitch said he was going to do this, but never did. I'm glad someone with the knowhow (Peter) took it upon himself to get this moving again. I'm also glad to find it here first; I'm getting weary of PalmGear's website problems. Looking forward to real color support!
***** Hi, Excellent application, work on my last palm (visor platinum, but don't work on my new clie 770 os4) I hope you can do something for that trouble !! Thank for your good job !! Good Wave !
***** This has been my favorite and most used application since I got my Palm. I am pleased that the author continues to update it. This program remains on my "MUST HAVE" list.
**** What can I say...freeware is almost always good. diddlebug has been an intriguing download, and I've tried all the doodling ones out there. From my perspective, the only two things I would like to see would be an extended screen to write on, like the original Palm app has.
**** The alarm doesn't work when the program is placed on memory card?
*** Well, it is not yet as useable as the notepad app that comes with the m100 but is feature rich and very promising. I say promising because there still seem to be some major design flaws that allow it to hang the system. Also, alarms do not display properly when the title is in hidden mode. I would suggest that until this gets past its beta stages that anyone that needs to write notes on their palm with reliability, use something else!
* It's inacceptable that the program isn't usable with OS 3.3 like the previous version. I think that *must* be possible for thousands of OS 3.3 users!!! Uwe
* Would there be a version for the lower OS version 3.1 or 3.3? Would there be a categories update like the Notepad in m100?
Bucky v0.2B
Bucky's world is overrun with evil monsters and the root of it all are these nasty Trolls.
***** I am running this on a palm Zire 21(you may have to sacrifice a button) and it is one of the best games I've found yet. Best of all its FREE!
***** Great gameplay and incretibly addicting! Love this game.
***** Mich,the acorn is... go to the well in the forest, climb up the tree stubs to the top then keep on going up and right
***** Great game! I killed the 5 trolls, and got 2 swords, 4/6 lives, and 1/2 feathers. I need more hints! I can't find the remaining two lives, and the feather! I fond a series of empty houses, and I never know what to do with them. HELP!
***** This game is the best but never play it on shabos.
***** It even works with the monochrome palm zire!
***** This is a great game have spoken to the developer about 1 save point ther will soon be other ways to save. There is now a controle changer too.
***** Great! But how do you complete the game? I only got 5 out of 6 lives and 1 out of 2 feathers...
***** This Game is EXCELLENT!!!!! I have tried it on the m105 and the Clie. excellent on both! GREAT GAME.
***** Great game, if you are using RNS butterfly there may be a never ending Please Wait screen. This is probably due to butterfly not bucky as it happens with other programs too!
***** It's as good as the legend of zelda!
***** This is a good game! One of the best! And its FREE!
***** A+++++ Great game!!!!! Best game ever made for a palm!!!!! I love it!!!! Make more games like this one.
**** I do enjoy the game; however, I agree that the bugs re sometimes quite unacceptable, yet gameplay and stragety keeps me going back. I actually have obtained all the items, and have nothing else to do with the game, so I am eagerly awaiting for an update soon! PLEASE FINISH IT MAN! great game. HINT: TWO TROLLS ARE IN THE SKIES...
**** I like this game alot, the first two times I played it was very impressive,.. however the 3rd & subsequent times I tried to play it I got a "please wait" message that lasted over 4minutes.. :/ I have a visor deluxe.
**** Great game with reasonably good graphics and speed. Requires an adventurous player in order to find the swords, feathers, hearts and the trolls. Some hints (shape of clouds) are given to guide the player to locate the treasures. Now I am at a loss what to do after getting all the treasures 2/2 features, 6/6 hearts, 5/5 trolls, 2/2 swords.
**** Hey now this is something good ... I have it on my M515 and it works like a charm ... a few probs tho ... only found one SAVE GAME SPOT and lil hard on the battery too... other than that totally AWESOME :)
**** Very nice game. But a save function would be appreciated. The game is a litte hard and a save function would be encouraging to proceed further in the game.
*** I like this game but u can't change the controls and setings. I think this game should be properly finished before putting on this site. Is there going to an up-grade?
** I thought this game was going to be good, but I was wrong. The graphics are nice but the gameplay is incredibly bad. First you have to find a sword, so you go out and on the way to your house it is almost certain that you will die your first 10 times because you only have 3 hearts and you will almost certainly take 1 damage per screen and will die as your house is like 6 screens away. Then when you actually get your sword it is not a hack-slash weapon, you throw it. Stupid. The when you have 1 heart and an enemy will show up. You will throw your sword and it will miss the enemy. You will prepare to throw your sword again and oh no! it is still in the air. Then you die. This is what made me delete it, You fall down and hole and you KEEP falling I was watching tv while playing this and 10 minutes later I was still Falling. Waste of time and memory.
FreeBoost v1.0
Make Your Palm Fast And Stable In 5 Minutes For Free.
***** Benchmark rating increased from 91% to 136% on a Palm m105. Set FreeBoost back to Normal and Benchmark's rating was 91% again. Objects in the mirror may be closer than they appear. Your mileage may vary. Etc.
***** I gained about 26% speed increase on a 20 MHz 8MB Palm V (not Vx) with OS 4.1. That figure is the same with Cruise Control (http://www.bluenomad.com/cc/prod_cruisecontrol_details.html). I guess both these programs do the same thing: change the wait states for the RAM access.
***** This product really works if your machine is compatible..... It does the exact same as cruise control ... EXACT SAME... is only works on palm devices that use the CruiseControl !!!!!!!!!!!!!only works with Palm Organizers that use the Motorola DragonBallEZ Microprocessor (MC68EZ328), such as the PalmV and PalmIIIX. It should not be used on other Palm devices.
***** No problems at all. Runs perfectly. Palm Vx with OS 4.1, about 1.7M free memory (lots of apps and data) tested with Speedy v3.2 for benchmark. Before: 99% or 20 Mhz; After 115% or 23 Mhz (stock Palm Vx=100% or 20 MHz).
***** I have a Sony Clie SJ33 and this download increased the speed substantially. I recommend it.
***** I noticed a good (maybe 15% increase of overall speed) increase of speed on My Handspring Visor Deluxe. I would Like to point out, however, for all of those with the new Treo handhelds, as well as the people with the Clie; that this program was intended for handhelds with the Motorola Dragonball EZ processor. Those handhelds DO NOT HAVE THAT PROCESSOR. That being said, for all those of us with older models, download freely.
***** Palm Vx with PalmOS 4.1: 50% less time in my searches. What can i say? Incredible but true. No crashes for the moment.
**** So far I like it a lot. It didn't make my m130 run at lightning speed or anything, but I did indeed notice a difference, it does run faster now. Thanks for a cool program!
**** Palm Vx - searching 1300 page document for a word at the end takes consistently 33% less time when this is enabled (20 sec. rather than 30 sec).
*** Well... it says increases speed by 100% which means, in fact, by its statement that there should be no speed increase at all... since and increase of 100% means there is no increase!!!! And... this is what you get... so I guess the description is accurate!
*** There was no documentation to tell me what to do. I assumed that I had to click on the Turbo button but I didn't see any speed improvement on my Palm VIIx. Am I missing something?
** I must punctuate that a 100% improvement in speed means twice the speed, just like a 50% improvement means it goes one half faster than before. Anyway, this is not the case.
** I could not see any change in performance. If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is... On the help screen it mentions going to their webpage for the "new" version which asks for your email address. This may be a scam to get SPAM email lists.
** It actually slowed my M130 down! For example, one search took 23 seconds on normal, and *27* on "turbo"!
** Noticed absolutely no increase in speed whatsoever... HS Treo180.
* I intalled this rubbish on my Tungsten T3 from a CD Rom supplied by PC Tools Magazine.As soon as I ran the program a FATAL ALERT message Fatal Exception appeared on the screen and asked for a reset. Resetting just produced the same message. I can not turn the T3 off or do any thing with it.
* No speed improvement noticed on a Palm 515. Morevover, crash and software reset after using the mapviewer application. Stayed less than 2 mn on my handheld. Then I deleted it...
* No increase in speed on Treo 270! Produce few crashes!
* Yes, this is the worst software of have ever downloaded. I have a zire71 and it locked my palmheld. I had to a warm boot and erase all data, then hot sync and put the data back on making sure that "freeboost" was deleted through my backup file folder.
* Well on a 66Mhz Clie, it resulted in a 30% reduction in performance!! So much for their guaranteed performance improvement. :-(
Khroma v2.3.2
Khroma is a simple program which allows interactive selection of colors for the PalmOS user interface.
***** This is a brilliant app, another step in my continuing effort for my palm to look EXACTLY like I want it to! many thanks to the developer!
***** Superb! can't ask for more than this, free or not! Breathes life into my Tungsten E. Palm should integrate this into their next OS release. Big thanks to the developer!!!
***** EXCELLENT ON T3! Program I used previously was super, but glitched badly on Tungsten T3. NOT THIS ONE! Perfect bright colors, easily configurable database of my own preferences; in case of soft reset just go into the program and select your scheme again. You can even import and export from Memo Pad your settings! Excellent program - what a difference in readability. Hint: make the claret (cursor) bright red to show up in text; also make alert box frames RED and the Hiliter either Teal or Lavender -- shows up much better than the yellow. Fantastic product; thanks Bela!!
***** Sorry to burst the bubble but whatever you do, do not delete the program without restoring the usual system colours. If you dont, it will wreak havok with hotsync as it will change the colours repeatedly. Otherwise, take that advice and its a 5star. WELL WORTH DOWNLOADING!!!
***** This is the Best thing on my Palm. I have a m130 (the first color ed.) and it's beautiful. Really brings your Palm to life. I'm amazed it's FREE!!
***** Great program. Works error free on my Tungsten.
***** Simply the best!
***** I had a fast try on the emulator and it works very well. This evening I'll try it on Palm. But just the idea to make text lines light gray instead of nag black makes this program really great! Compliments :]
***** This is by far the coolest Palm customization program out there, and totally free! I've had v1.1 forever, but I just found v2.1, so the good just keeps getting better! (works fine on my Sony SJ30 w/FastCPU and X-Master).
***** It's about one month I'm using it on my Palm, especially to make the lines (in text fields) brighter. It works perfectly, compliments again :]
***** This program is cool, but messes up the colors with some simple games. It would be cooler if it didn't do that, but nothing's perfect.
***** Good program but has a confusing layout. I had originally despaired when my trial version of Chrome expired. Until I found this app. Good job!
***** Superb! Not only it added 'spice' on my Palm m130 (Bye-bye to those boring color scheme), it makes my Palm stands out and more fun to use. Thanks!
***** Sweet! Works great on my Sony Clie 610.
***** A must have for any palm user who works in different times of day, different apps with different colour requirements... well.. if you use your palm for anything you can use Khroma! I've gotten responses like "wow, it's got a blue/orange background!", which just tell you it's special. The default settings are pretty varied, and you can easily make new ones. Some programs may not like colour changes, but with a few quick taps you can change the entire scheme. Palm should really think about integrating this into their OS, or adding it as an app.
***** I love it! Khroma makes my handheld feel a lot more personalized and being FREE, how can you beat it!!
***** This program is AWESOME! I love being able to change the color of text, etc, on my IIIc. Currently I have the background set to a light blue, and its cool because depending on the angle your looking at the screen at, varys the color of the blue, so I call it Sky Blue. I couldn't do this without Khroma! THANKS!
***** This is undoubtedly the best of the best of all applications ever made for a Palm based system. Works wonders on my Tungsten T, its absolutely amazing to see the way people want to glue themselves to my Tungsten when they see the color variances. Great job by Bela. Two thumbs up. This is a must have!
**** Excellent program! makes my 3.53 Vx look like a 4.1! Word of caution though, install it properly, and disable hacks before configuring. It HARD RESET my palm!
ClockPop Hack v2.7
Press and hold the Datebook button. Clock will appear and stay until you release the button.
***** This is a must have programme, in a single press you see the Time, Battery Info and Appoinment. GREAT!!! Thanks.
***** So, so great app. "Wake up with b/l" is very useful, but why not including JogDial (up/down/back) of Clie in set of buttons we can use to call the clock.
***** That's it. Perfect application. Strange that is not included with original palmtop ROM.
***** Just what I was looking for. I ue my Palm as a wakeupclock too so at night if I wanted to know the time I had to go through the sequence of stating up the Palm and look for the time but this app does it all with one button, cool! A side note: On my Palm Vx it kept crashing untill I deleted the Xterns.
***** Very useful. Palm should have this feature in the first place. Wish it could display network status (GPRS, signal) for my Treo. Also it uses one of the 4 hardware buttons as trigger, would rather use Option+button or some other means.
***** Certainly it's a great hack. But it doesn't support Sony Clie hiRes.
***** Great hack, get time, info without turning handheld on or leaving program. Highly recommend!
***** This program is so AWESOME, so convienent, I love it, thank you maker of this wonderful idea application. Must download.
***** Really great and useful program! Now I don't miss anymore my old Psion's "next event". Compliments Stephen, wonderful work. :]
***** Very usefull application.
***** Version 2.6 crashed my Palm IIIxe, but I went back to version 2.5 without problems. In general, this is a great little program. I use it frequently. Version 2.5 has never caused any problems.
***** Compliments again, every new version of this application adds something useful :] Thank you for correcting the [Time] function, U're great! :]
***** This is a must have application. I use it several times a day for a quick time check. Definitely a favorite here.
***** I just installed it and went thru your docs. Excellent app!!!
***** It will be more useful if the pgm was able to catch day and months names from system instead to have to change them manually (and for months it's not possible). I'd like that the settings of [time] skin follow the system one. I use the 24 hours format but the [time] still show a.m. and p.m. I just tried version 2.3 on emulator and the date stays on bottom regardless of what I choose... But it may depend by emulator...
***** Very Handy little program, very nice.
**** I like it very much though moving it to flash crashed my 505.
**** Great App that show all the system info.
**** Great app.
Colorize v1.4a
Colorize lets you select from several color themes.
***** Works great on my new Zire 72. Makes my color choices better than the ones in prefs!
***** Good tool to use with my Clie N760C. Thanks.
***** YES! I already used a ColorTheme snap-in to get some different looks, but now I can define my own colors! Great!
***** It is terrific on my m130. It looks great even though i only have a 160*160 bit colour screen. It is only 30k and looks beautiful...recommended! Thanks Chris Antos!
***** EXCELLENT ON T3 NOW despite "T3 weirdness;" I know Christopher worked VERY HARD on this improvement over quite some time and I'm grateful to him. Imports and/or exports preferred setting from memo pad, survives soft reset (which one other similar app DOES NOT), and is FREE (which a 3rd alternative app IS NOT). By far the SIMPLEST, quickest, effective color changer available now -- and it's defeated the terrible T3 Glitch Dragon!! Great work, Mr. A./Paul, California
***** man, this is what i have been waiting for... this + fonts4os5 = really cool theme-ing! :P
***** Its awesome.
***** Simple, easy to use, and works great with my Clie NX70V!
***** Nice program! Very easy to use and it takes up very little memory. Looks great on my Treo 90.
***** I am really enjoying the new colors on my Treo.
***** The program works great on Clie NR70V ! Recommended.
***** It works brilliant on my m505, I have no problems, my PDA is now very colourful, I'm enjoying the colourful backgrounds, Thanks for the free software.
***** Works perfectly on my Palm m130. Very smart, very good and very easy to use. And it's compact as well. Good Job!
***** Works great on my Sony CLIE.
***** A great way to customize! Very easy to install and use. Unlimited customized color schemes.
***** Super snsationell! Thanks.
**** Very good colour changing program with only one glitch: Do not EVER user or tap the 16 bit colour button on a T3. It will let older apps lock (like domino's) and it will give you a system lock (Exception error) alomst each time you put your T3 in the usb connected cradle.
**** Great program, I love all the color choices it give me. Wish I could use it for Palm Desktop! One bug to report - I can't use "Export" on my Tungsten E, it causes a fatal exception error, and the need to reset.
* This program is horribe. It messed up everything on my m505. For most apps, you couldn't see anything.
matrix v1.33
matrix is a security program with a nice animation.
***** This program is great, it easyer than typing in a load of numbers and great animatoin.
***** Very stylish, very functional and a great product. I use it more for the cool looking clock than for the security features, but all features are excellent.
***** I love this program it is the bomb all my freinds like it too,i wanna send a thanks to the maker of this program.
***** This si a grea tsecurity program. If you have a Palm Tungsten E do not bother download ing however, because you can get by the security by holding the button in the middle of the 5-way navigator.
***** Hey I was wondering if this could bw made into color I just got a treo 90 and it would be better if it was in color.
***** I run matrix on my visor prism and it has had no problems. BUT, I wouldn't use it for its security features as I found a major flaw in it. If you have your system locked and you insert a springboard module, it completely bypasses matrix and lets you use the system. Not much security there. Hopefully this will be fixed in the next version. But if you want an awesome looking clock, then this is it.
***** This is awesome. You idiots who say its easy to break in to by reseting are wrong all you have to do is set it to automaticly lock after a reset and it does. The only thing that could be better is if you could make it automaticly lock at a certin time of day.
***** This is a wonderous utility! I love it! It is wonderfull! Plus, there is no way to bypass it!!!
***** yeah, nice program!!! just an update on security and that's it!!
***** Awesome graphics, and nice setup. I love it!
***** This is a great program. It seems to me that it is a solid security system for the Palm OS. It also has a nice animation.
**** An good utility. Nice animation and very useful if you love to be secure!
**** i love the program, its very cool when you see it at your palm, but i dont know how to lock it. thanks!!
**** Great Clock!!! Awful security. Just hit the reset button and go right in. I do have it as my start-up screen on a Visor & would never change it. It's the BEST (also with the movie). I hope the security is fixed in later versions.
**** Good app for what it is. I use it on my m100 for the average shmoe who doesn't know how pda's work (my friends & co-workers, most everybody I know) and may get curious about what is in it, or if it gets lost (put my cell phone # in the scrolling text). No illusions about real security, though. Love the graphics. Would be better to toggle the back-light instead of the clock.
*** Really cool clock, but have you ever tried brute-force cracking a password only made of 4 possible items? Try it sometime. It's not that hard if you're random enough or feel like being systematic. Cool clock, decent security. Also, unlocking sound does not turn off with the rest of the system sounds if you have your palm in a silent mode.
*** This is a pretty cool application. It isn't the most secure security system because all you have to do to bypass this is to do a soft reset and not reinstall hacks. But for most people that get there hands on this, it will do the job.
*** It looks like it would be a good program, if I coulD get it to work correctly on my palm.. I have a Trio 180g from Handspring with a built in cellphone, one OF the best things I've ever owned, but when you open the lid it bypasses this security software and goes right to the speeddial, where you can use it normally.
* Since I have installed this program, and restarted the hack, it has never left the boot-up screen. I have soft and hard reseted, but it would not work. This is most probably because if you do not have a flash rom, so unless you dont know if you have a flash rom, do not download this program!
Pocket Dimension v1.2
Enter into the dungeon if you dare! Pocket Dimension boasts a ten level dungeon romp using hand-tooled mazes or randomly generated mazes. Your quest will cover ten levels of monsters, traps and over 100 items to try out.
***** Excellent game! One of the best ever till Pocket Dimension 2 is released! (beta finished 7/04) You should look around for that one (start at the pd1 site). That one may be the best ever adventure game.
***** The best free game you will find. Excellent!
***** An entertaining and adictive game. Be sure to save when good things happen. Hours of engrossing play!
***** This game is one of the two games on my PDA which never get boring. (the other is Space Trader) I can play MANY hours. The author is working on PDimension 2, which will be more complex, and will be COLOR! Hope it will be free too... Looks good on my Clié SJ30. No freeze, no distortion. I like the hard button control. A must-have. Do not hesitate, DOWNLOAD!
***** Excellent game!! A must have for all RPG lovers!!!!! Works well on my Palm Tungsten E although it sometime freezes my device. But nothing a soft reset won't cure. Don't hesitate, get it TODAY! Still can't find the easter eggs tho... :P
***** Great game with all the RPG elemwnts. For people who dont like using the stylus, in battle you can use the hardware buttons to make choices.
***** I can't figure out how to pass a level or why when you are hit for 2 damage, the screen says you are hurt very badly (I have 11 hp).
***** EXCELLENT Download!!! Still fun to play after dozens of wins!
***** Great and entertaining game :-) Just make sure to have a high dex and strength, so you can run away in the beginning (dex), and hit hard (strength).
***** Wicked Awesome! Simply The Best Adventure Game On The Net! *********A 100 Star MEGA HIT!********* P.S.Download it Today..Trust Me...You Won't BE Sorry! But SAVE SAVE SAVE! This Is A Very LONG GAME!
**** Very good game! BTW, Confused, I think the "Very Badly Hurt" thing is how hurt the enemy is.
**** Great game. Hours of fun. If it were also in color it would be perfect. I drank a fizzy pink potion and I'm poisoned .... oh no! ...
**** Enjoyed the game very much. One of the best games that I have downloaded. I can not believe it was free. I wish it came in a color version. Loved the monster/encounters and the items (potions,scrolls ect.)
**** Good rpg, except it gets boring with the unchanging scenery.
**** I like it. IT IS FREE. A must download for your palm!!!!!!!!!! GET IT NOW.
**** ...I'm not much for RPG's, but this is one of the few games that is actually fun for the palm pilot... It's in 3d... and for those who wanted to know, the "condition" part where it says "good, bad, horrible" etc. is the condition of the enemy, not of you.
**** I think this is a very good game. Just when im walking in the dungeon. Im confusing with the walls. Someone need to make a game like this but colory.
**** It's good. PD2 is better and it could use to be in color.
**** Great game at a great price (free). Would be a 5-Star game if in color (Hint Hint).
Graphics Pad v2.2.2a/b
You can draw freehand, lines, boxes (filled and unfilled), in either black, white or you can invert the colour underneith the pen.
***** Had 100% compatibility--works like a charm----waiting for your next project Mark--keep it up.using palmIIIc--going to M515 next.
***** Instead of posting on here why don't you EMAIL me to tell me, I don't visit my own page often/at all. I also am very unsure on what you guys have? I have tested it on a platinum and it ran perfect, I also ran it on a Prism and an Edge. If you could email me PalmOS version, default gray depth (Use Wyrd Dev or Toggle) and if you are running any hacks, what are they and what manager you are using. I can't do an aweful lot about this problem unless I know about it, or the setups you have. Especially because it worked when I tested it.
***** I just downloaded the program and it worked flawlessly. I commend the writer of this program and his good work.
***** This is the greatest graphic program, Double draw is good too but this is great! there is no crashes on the Handspring Visor with Palm OS v3.1 IF YOU HAVE 3.1 GET THIS APPLICATION, IT ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
**** When I wrote it, I tested it on a Platinum, and I had no errors occuring. I'll take a look into it.
**** The latest "mono" version ran fine on my Palm IIIxe. I did not try the gray-scale version. This is the best free graphic pad program I know so far. Thanks Mark.
*** This is exactly what I needed. I don't want a 400 kb app if all I want is make some simple drawing. Keep improving it.
** This does not necessarily mean that the program is bad. The problem could be due to corruption in the file posted here. I had the same problem with a few other files posted at this site. (ie. Launcher III). In that case the same file posted elswhere did not cause problems. You could try to find the file elsewhere... but back up your PDA first anyway.
* This application gave me a fatal error to and force me to do a hard reset and I lost all my info. Someone help me here please go to start find (file name) *pdb delete it sync. I did it it worked.
* v2.2.2a is the same, wont work on my platinum.
* Bad code caused a hard crash and burn on my Prism.
* WARNING!! Do not download or even attempt to INSTALL this program. It will give you a FATAL ERROR and force you to do a hard reset meaning you will lose all your data. Then you will have a hard time resyncing because the program has now been copied to your backup. Anyway, DO NOT INSTALL!! ** This program should be taken out of the listings immediately.
* This application gave me a fatal error to and force me to do a hard reset and I lost all my info. Someone help me here please.
* Crashed my platinum, and an endless message to reset.
* I get the same fatal error, and have to erase my palm and reload again. You better fix this problem.
* Yeah, you warned me. I am using a Handspring Visor Neo with PalmOS v3.5, and the grey-scale version crashed my system just the same. Do not use this grey-scale version.
* Me 2. Had to format my palm after install.
* Jamie, I get the same fatal error.
* Every time I install this application onto my platinum visor, I get a "Fatal Exception". I am then forced to do a hard reset and wipe my memory completely. Is it just me? has anyone else had this happen?
FileZ v6.2
Filez is an easy to use file manager for the Palm OS.
***** Totally Awesome. "Off the Hook!" One of the best and most valuable utilities I own for my T3... the fact that you make it available for free is a real blessing. Outstanding work!
***** Just one word about the 6.2 update : excellent update to a most excellent software. Great in every aspect! Keep up the good work!
***** I love this guy! You rock man. Thanks for keeping it going. This app comes in soooo handy soooo often. I know the big dogs must hate you, but you're #1 cool in my book.
***** Fantastic app and it's free. Seems to do it all. Works great on my CLIE. The only change that would make it better is HI-RES support. Still, deserves 5 stars.
***** I find Filez an extremely useful program. However I downloaded this one and is was not v6. but 5.3.2 with only a couple of bytes of code different. I was extremely suspicious and deleted it.
***** Indeed a great great tool. My previous file manager, crashed a couple of times on my memory card. FileZ has no troubles at all! Thanx!
***** Very straightforward and hassle-free. NO MEMORY FAULTS!!!
***** Need to move files into/out of ROM and also set read-only attributes? This is the only file management tool that can do it. There are others that cost money, but why go that route when this program is best?
***** Absolutely invaluable tool to view, edit, and manage the files on your Palm at a granular level. Every power user needs this program.
***** SelectAll and DeselectAll fills the file listing window with the same file. After scrolling the listing, it goes back to normal. I'm using M100 (Japanese version, upgraded to 8MB).
***** I've been using various versions of Filez for over a year now to do things on my TRGpro that couldn't be done otherwise. It has become one of the utilities I depend on for general use of my PDA.
***** A wonderful file manager for your Palm. I have been using it since v4.0 and just love it! Allows the best way to beam (even locked programs) and to also delete files from the Palm. Very stable and very small.
***** Brilliant program, worked really well on my Palm Vx.
***** After using this application for a while I did try another similar one; I realized that this one is much better, because it is fast and easy to use! Thank you.
***** The one and the only VFS browser which do works on my m125. Great work!
***** FileZ rocks! I have only had my m505 for about a week now. From the start I have been trying to get a handle on what kind of file structure is used in a handheld.
***** Great utility. I had some 'leftovers' on my Treo that I couldn't seem to get rid of, and Filez cleaned it up.
**** Excellent replacement to a program known as 'ZarfCatalog that was never updated. This added color support and recently added memory card support. The sorting and editing features are just short of essential. I'd give it a five except that the color coding seems washed out on a Palm m505 and the interface, while wonderful at the time, is actually inferior to McFile when copying files to/from memory cards. Oh, and it would be nice if I could cache the file information so that startups would go faster. Put this on your palm and you won't regret it.
MonoPalm (fr) v1.1.2 f
MonoPalm est un jeu de Monopoly pour Palm OS.
***** I'll also love an English version one.....
***** Am I asking for a french version of every sofware I like on my palm... no I learn English because those bloody english/americans are hopeless! So learn how to speak french and stop hassling this genius for christsake! Just program it in english yourselves! Toutes mes felicitations pour ce super programme! Vraiment bien.
***** ENGLISH!!!!!
***** I would like an english version for OS v3.0 (b/w).
***** How are the plans for the english version coming? Looking forward to it. Please e-mail me. kwesipatteson@wayne.edu
***** English ver. + Grayscale s'il vous plait.............................. Je vous attends. Merci ^_^
***** Envoi moi la version joueur contre palm dès que c pret ce jeu est trop fort mon meilleur ami est jaloux de ne pas l avoir sur windows ce ,et ca aussi c trop fort...merci a toi et encore BRAVO
***** I am very very interested with your MonoPalm, but do you have a English version? I am looking forward to download it asap.
***** Anglais si vous plait! Anglais!
***** Great game but I agree with everyone else.......there must be an english version.
**** I can't read french so i am feeling my way around this game. So far so good. easy to understand the controls. problem is there is no option for computer players. Only human or HUMAIN players are allowed. Another slight improvement possible is probably a view on the total amount of money each player has in the transfer view/menu. so far we can only try to remember our last amount if we wanna do any trading inter players.
**** This looks like a very cool game if there was an english version
**** I know about an english version, but I've found so few PalmOS freewares in french that it was a priority to write in my maternal language... Nevertheless, the english version is planed ! Just mail me if you want to be in the mailing-list.
**** You know, asking for an English version isn't so bad, but the fact that people here seem to be demanding it in such an indignant manner seems not only rude, but also just plain nasty. Please, be nice, this person has put a lot of effort into producing a high-quality game that's *free* to download. Appreciate it. If you want an English version, ask nicely. Oui, moi aussi je suis francophone.
**** It looks like a good program but I'm gonna have to agree with everyone else, you need a ENGLISH version.
*** Hey, how about making an ENGLISH version!?...that would be nice...
** Have English version?
* Wish they would make an English version. Been looking for just that for a long time.
Falling v1.0
Falling is a small, simple, yet extremely addicting game for your PDA.
***** This one has it all: fast, addictive, simple yet challenging. Thanks for this excellent game! Only wish the buttons could be configured.
***** Excellent!!! Very adictive! Would be nice if the final score was shown when the game ends.
***** The original version was a great and addictive game. Latest version cannot be played in TREO 600, the "ball" is missing.
***** A good simple game but it won't run if you have write anywhere on the screen switched on. It works fine on my Tungsten E except for this setting when its switched on.
***** Annoyingly fun. It sucks you in like all great freeware games (Bee, Chopper, Irjet, Mars, SP) and prevents you from paying attention to your girlfriend. Suddenly you're in trouble. "Why are you mad? I didn't do anything!"
**** Nice and simple, and I can actually exit from the new version on my Clie TG-50. I'd give it five stars because it's so much fun, but I can't enter my name for the high scores, since it doesn't understand Graffiti Anywhere or the keyboard. Make it compliant with Palm standards; stop taking over all input! It could also use a simple bonus, such as score pills or something.
**** Good concept; original and worthy of improving upon by (1) allowing "new games" without quitting and restarting the program (2) use a menu item rather than page up to disable sound (too easy to accidentally hit now), (3) allow different speeds; it's pretty good now on my Zire 71, but having a slower training speed at first would help, (4) allow jumping, or have rubies always placed in accessible locations (now, they appear in places where its impossible to get to them (5) add different levels and backgrounds for interest (6) start easier and add greater levels of complexity to keep players interest longer (7) make the game compliant with system sound settings.
**** Another suggestion: have previously entered high score initials entered in entry field by default.
**** I think that this game has potential and should continue to be updated and improved. It is very simple but fun and I keep it because I see what it could be one day. Keep up the good work. Bring more.
**** And another: Power button doesn't allow turning off my Zire 71 while the program is running.
**** Suggest version with sound, graphics background ...Yes..this going to be a hits !!! Can't wait for next version.
**** Yeah, reminds me of my old TI-83+ days. Simple yet entertaining. However, one gripe is that on my TG50 (and probably other devices with no silk screen), I cannot exit the game unless I soft reset. This is because any hardware button I press starts the game. The home button on the TG50 is a hardware button. The back button also starts the game, as does the voice memo button. But otherwise, a great game reminding me of my TI-83+ games.
**** Simple & fun.
**** Nice and simple. But runs a bit too fast on my Tungsten T3, I think.
*** It doesn't work on my Zire. I can't move the ball left because of the different keys.
*** Monotonous, but fun. The menu doesn't work (flashes on the screen for a second, then disappears).
** Except for a series of glitches (none of them fatal, just annoying), it's a fun game. On my Visor Pro OS 3.5, the game frequently restarts, stops and asks for my initials, or pauses while the point counter catches up to my score.
* Previous version worked fine on my Tungsten T. New version keeps pausing then restarts itself continuously. Original version was challenging, new one is pretty easy until it restarts. This rating refers to this version only. Previous version would get 4 stars.
Fallout v1.50
The first FREE game by AeroSoft, the object of the game is to maneuver a blue crescent around many walls that are flying upwards at it to reach the bottom of the screen.
***** It didn't work on my palm but I would highly recommend this game to anyone. It is quite possibly the greatest game I have ever not played.
***** A great game. Works great on my M 505. Very addictive. Could be better if it had more than one level. Out of 47 games this is the only one that stayed on my palm.
***** This game is really challenging, and works perfectly on my m130!
**** Game works great on my clie, but not quite as fast as the calculator version.
**** Works too well on my Zire 21. Damn it's hard at that speed! Fun game tho.
**** The game works great on my Palm m125. I had no idea, though, that it would be so fast! It's a good quickie when there's not time for solitaire or reading a book.
** Would not work on my palm m130. Loaded both the toolbox and the game but would not work or even show up on my desktop.
** Hey um...I bet this game is good, but come on.. I'll tell you what, the black and white version does not work on my visor. The playing field is blank, then it tells me I lose. I really want to play this, do something!!!
* Playing field is not visible on my m515.
* Pile of poo.... (putting my critical hat on here...). Doesn't work on my Palm IIIc either...
* Couldn't see the play area on my Visor Prism.
* Challenging game! I can see the score going up on the right hand side. What I have found slightly difficult is that I can neither see the walls or indeed the blue crescent! Apart from that.....Using M500.
* It does not work on an M505 either...
* The Game does not work on my Palm M505 at all. - What a pitty.... P.S. For writing an e-mail: just remove the ".nospam".....
* Can't view the playing area on my Handspring Visor Platinum.
* Does not work on my Visor Prism. All I get is the text, but no graphics. I installed the fallout.prc (color) file. I had the PCToolBox Lib v7.3.6 installed already. Palm OS version is v3.5.2H1.5.
* Game doesn't work on my Sony Clie T615C. Only shows a blank screen.
* This game does not work at all on my m100. Please, do something!
Progect Manager v0.29
Progect is a project manager application for Palm type PDAs, it is simple and easy to use, but powerful.
***** Best Project management software out there. Exactly what I needed to manage my projects.
***** After using this application for a little more than 5 months it has become a part of my daily life. It has helped me a lot in organizing all the things that I have to do as a system administrator... GREAT PROGRAM!!!
***** This is a superb program. I find myself more organized than ever. Its like the task list on steroids.
***** I thought it was FANTASTIC on an M505 Palm. 3 days in to owning a Tungsten T3 - and it blazes away! THROW AWAY CHECKLIST, "brain" apps, bloated 350K thought mnagers -- this thing is 100k and absolutely ROCKS. Just for checklists alone it's amazing - but I'm using it for so much more and you will too. A rare, quality find developed by a quality individual. Happy New Year, everyone/Paul, California.
***** Yes that is great PROJECT MANAGER AND OUTLINER.
***** Works well on my Zire71. Very useful and well thought of application. Highly recommended for busy people. Makes life more productive.
***** Progect is wonderful software. It is easy to treat project and work of a small number of people. I am a Japanese. Furthermore, the correspondence to Japanese is very glad. I desire the following. Correspondence to a small font. The definition of the work load to a task.
***** This program has been extensively reworked this year to get rid of pretty well all the crashes. If you have had trouble in the past with this program, give the latest version a try 0.27 or greater.
***** A really great addition to any Palm! Fantastic! Easy to use tutorial help. Allows you to create project hierarchies and outlines with dates and other very useful features.
***** Just the program I'm looking for. An outliner tightly integrated with the Palm To Do List. Execllent Utility!!!
***** It has become almost impossible for me to live without this program. Works great on my Sony Clie SJ30! Keep up the good work. Would love to get some icons for it, maybe you could include a few in the zip file? Thanks Again!!
***** Have been using it for about 3 weeks. Of all the outliner programs I like this one the best (and it is free). Had an issue with it locking up for a while, but re-installed and has been good since. Only area that I find uncomforatable at first was the lack of 'add' or 'new' button. You just start to write and it adds. Once I got used to this I was ok.
***** Really excellent. Are you working in the spanish version?
***** Amazing software. I had been looking for a simple way to manage projects (of mostly personal nature) using hierarchical to-do lists for a long time, with little luck. Most other project mgt programs are unnecessarily complicated, with hours to allocate, Gantt chart etc. Progect is just perfect.
**** It´s great to control tasks, but when I tried to use it with PDESK to sinc with desktop, some projects were never synchronized. This is a problem because sometimes I want to copy a new task from somewhere else and paste in PDESK.
*** It looks like a very useful program, but every other time I create a new entry, it crashes with the message "StringMgr.c, Line:67,NULL string passed." My Visor Platinum has OS v3.5.2H1.5. I tried that repair tree from the menu, but that didn't seem to help. It looks like a fantastic idea, can't wait for a bug free version. I make a lot of website maps and it would be perfect.
* It looked good when I looked at the tutorial however it crashes my Visor Prism every time I tried to create my own file.
Car v1.00f
For COLOR and GREYSCALE PDA. Choose your race and go!
***** This was a really fun game to have. Extremely addictive!! I recently upgraded my palm from a 100 series to a Zire, and it doesn't work with OS5. Now I am so very sad...
***** If you want a racing game this is for you.
***** Awesome! Although, it would be more fun with a third dimension and a level editor! Keep it up!
***** Sweet freeware game!
***** Really fun. Hard to stear though A++++ Free too! Yay I'm so happy! Thanks to the creater of this awesome game.
***** This game ROCKS!And its free! Thanks for making this available to ALL of us. Great graphics, cool tracks or make your own!How cool is that!!? Thanx again!...Dave
***** Blinding! At last a game that actually feels like an arcade game. Pretty tricky with the controls though but getting used to it... keep it up!
***** Congratulations! Fantastic game.
***** It's an awesome game, the only problem is it is easy to ace. There are only 2 levels and work on it for 20 minutes and you'll master it. It would be even better if they had more race.
***** Really cool, even beginners have a real chance to get some fun
***** This is a great game! Super fast too! but the handling is slippery!
**** This game is fairly good but the down side is that it is hard to see, hard to control, and hard to figure out how to win. But i quote from my friend Scottie "it's Additing!"
**** I think this is just the most fun app I ever downloaded but when I went to the app launcher info then version I kept getting a fatal error. I finally figured out the program causing the error and it was this App. So this program is NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE VISOR DELUXE AS FAR AS I KNOW!!!!
**** Yeah, mad little racing game. And for the people out there bored with the tracks, there are plenty of free ones available for download if you look around :)
**** It's gonna take some getting used to, but once I get a handle on it, I should be able to drive okay. I like the explosion effect.
**** I liked this game on my Visor Deluxe, except for the ugly display (which ruined most games IMHO). Now I've got a Tungsten, but I can't seem to run Car at all! It crashes and warm-resets the machine. Has anyone gotten this working on Palm OS 5?
*** Great graphic, but man is that car hard to control! Also, you get near another car and everyone goes into a spin. Needs more variety as far as tracks.
Rick Dangerous v1.0
"Way before Lara Croft, back in the 1980's and early 1990's, Rick Dangerous was the Indiana Jones of computer games, running away from rolling rocks, avoiding traps, from South America to a futuristic missile base via Egypt and the Schwarzendumpf castle."
***** The game. Brilliant. An Excellent 80's DOS Platformer. I can't get past Eygpt :). The Players i see here writing reviews... Utterly disasterous! What the heck do you mean by "how do i get past the boulder?"... Come on. I played this when i was two years old. and you can't get past the boulder... what has happened people?
***** Anyone here knows how to change level. I already went passed level 1 (south america) and i don't want to play that level again everytime i start the game. I am using Palm m130. Please advise...too good to be true that it's freeware!
***** but I cannot go beyond the Egypt level, at the screen where I fall down to the ledge at left side, some small board platform at right, and sharp tooth at above... there are arrow from the right continually. although I can jump to the first platform, anyway I jump again, no matter what direction I jump, I got shot by the arrow. I tried to set up dynamic or shot to all kinds of positions to stop the arrow... can anyone provide a walkthrough?
***** A very good game! Really fun on my Sony SJ33. Thanks for the freeware!
***** TUNGSTEN E USERS: Press the Nav Select button to reload. Press the Fire button to fire. You will have more than one bullet per level. My only proof is to say that my highscore is 011169. The default list has been kicked off! Yeah, go me!
***** Guys thgis game is G R E A T!!! Great graphics, great sounds, very enjoyable! If you love platform games you won't be certainly disappointed. It's incredible it's freeware! This is definetely a must have!!
***** This works with OS 3.5! Now if I could just get past the rolling boulder!
***** Works brilliantly on my sony n770uc. But how do u reload bullet. I have done it a few times but not sure what E pressed to do it.
***** Excellent port over. Remember this from my good 'ol Amiga days! Now that takes me back a bit ... To reload bullets, just press the fire key for the gun (this will cock the gun for you) then press down, this will reload your gun. Now when you let go of the down key the gun will fire. So you will have more than 1 bullet per screen. Scrolling is a bit poor though, would also have liked to have seen the pitfalls below, rather than waste a life. But WELL DONE guys!
**** This game is very fantastic. However, there is no sound in my palm Zire71. If anyone know how to set , please tell me.
*** It deleted the enire memory of my palm the first time I tried it. But I reinstalled everything from my backup (using AdvBackup) and it worked. OTher than that it seems to be quite good. (To get past the rolling boulder, keep running.)
*** I have been waiting for this game for years, but alas I must wait longer. It seem to crash my tre0 600. Shame really as I loved this game as a kid.
*** Looks really nice and reminds me of the old days on amiga. Unfortunately, it doesn't run on sony clié ux-50, I can't control the character and the game stops as long as a key is pressed. Sound support is limited to tungsten and zire?!?!
*** A commendable effort for porting, but just a couple of bugs to work out. I'm running on a Tungsten E, and the 5-way navigator support still needs some work. Also, I find I can only fire one bullet for a given level, and then I can't shoot, even when I have bullets. Resolve these problems, and we have a winner.
*** Great port of XRick, but my Clie SJ33 also had the one-bullet-per-level problem. The ability to redefine the keys would also help a great deal, too.
** Realy good attempt but with too many bugs. How you are supposed to get anywhere by only firing one bullet is beyond me. a real shame!!
** Looks like a great game, but it causes my Treo 600 to soft reset whenever I try to start a game. :(
Switch5 v4.4
Switch5 is a PalmOS 5 app which provides a simple way to switch between recently used applications.
***** Orignally, I thought that v4.4 wasn't working and I sent a bug report to the developer. Got an email back from him asking about the problem and a new emails later, realized that I made a mistake since the newer version (I originally was using v4.0) no longer was an app but was now in the Apps Pref section. Duh! But, the developer was great in stepping through the whole process and very nice. That's what I call great support! And, yeah, Switch5 works great.
***** Very nice! Works well on my zire 31.
***** Works perfectly. Hope the author will someday add ability to scroll through recent app list with up-down buttons on my Treo 5 way navigator.
***** SUPER APP - What else can I say - it helps me and my NX70 HAPPY!!!!!!!!!
***** Great little app! I'm using it on my Clie TJ37 and it works great. I like that the strokes are intuitive; down=back and up=menu. One possible bug: make any selection directly from the Prefrences app drop-down menu and then tap the Applications button. Next, open Pref's again and choose Switch5 from the drop-down menu. Tap the Applications button again, and then use the "back" stroke (Applications-to-Menu"). The action will revert to the last Preferences menu item chosen before you selected Switch5. One work-around appears to be to open Preferences and select Switch5> tap Applications> open the Pref's app. a second time (defaults to Switch5)> tap Applications, then you can use the back stroke to go to Switch5. Nit-picking, I admit. Just thought you might like to know. I would like to see a selectable option to create a static Favorites list in alphabetical order just like a typical Windows Start menu. That way you can get used to knowing exactly where each menu item is if you want, rather than having recently used apps moving around in the menu. Anyway, thanks again for an extremely useful app!
***** I'm feeling guilty because I have been using this excellent application for a while without any feedback here. When I got my Palm, having only previously used a Windows PC, I really missed the Back button which is built in to my mouse. This replaces a Back button and much more. If you're wondering whether it would be worthwhile downloading, stop wondering and do it! Then check out Mark Tamra's other programs. They are all things which you wish Palm had built in but they never did. Thanks, Mark.
***** I like especially how the menu can popup on the bottom-left like a "Start" menu. Very useful and never had a problem on my Zire 71. Software developers must be paying Palm not to make their PDAs more useful out of the box so they can sell software to us. Thanks for making this free and available!
***** I LOVE this application! I think I use it more than any other app on my TE and my TH55! I love the clock/date popup! Thanks Mark for developing and sharing this essential app!
***** Ange, Switch5 4.2 now appears in the Others section of Pref. In the previous versions, if the system locks and you reset the Palm, Switch5 stops working properly via strokes and every second time you try to switch to previous aplications it crashes the system again. But now the problem is gone, and I'm fully satisfied with this free Hi-Launcher. Congratulations, now this software is easily worth 6 stars, a must-have!
***** Version 4.1 was/is awesome. The newest version (4.2) didn't install properly on my T3. After hotsyncing, there was no way to invoke the program... it showed up in FileZ but not anywhere in my applications so I couldn't use it. I uninstalled the new version and reinstalled the previous version.
***** Mr. Tamura, you are awesome! After my TRGpro died, I upgraded to a Tungsten|E. What a dissapointment to find none of my favorite hacks, including SwitchHack, would work on my new OS 5 unit. I often found myself stroking from Home to Screen to get back to my previous app, only to realize I was stuck that 'Non-Hackable' OS 5 . Switch5 to the rescue! Thanks again & again & again....
***** Much of the functionality of the hacks I used on my Visor are implemented in OS5, but I was bereft without SwitchHack. I just installed and used it a few times and I am SO happy and grateful for this person to have written this great little app, and then he offers it as freeware to boot. Thanks, Mark!
***** Great app. Works well, intuitive. Creator keeps updating and making it better! Thanks!
***** I have used switchhack (and hackmaster) for several years on my palm Vx and then my Palm 515 ... but it wouldn't work on new zire 71. I just downloaded Switch5 for my zire 71 and it works great! Thanks! I would be even happier if it could remember what record it was on in the address book when i switch back to the address book. I too wonder why palm doesn't include this functionality in their devices ... i find it extremely helpful to be able to switch between applications.
***** Wonderfull ! How Palm software didn't come to this precious hack ? So easy to use and so usefull. Coz, I'm always using 3-4 pgms, most of the time the sames... Clap Clap Clap !
***** Excellent Program!! It works well on my Zire 71. I used to have a Palm V with Phlegm Hack (runs only on os 4 and earlier) and when I bought my Zire 71, I really missed those shortcuts. Thanks for writing a Phlegm Hack replacement for OS 5.
EasyLaunch v0.16
EasyLaunch is a simple HackMaster extension hack used to launch applications, applets from Preferences or desk accessories (DAs) and to perform other frequent actions by simple pen strokes or hardware keys.
***** After switching to OS5 this is the hack I miss the most. I found a $14.95 replacement called QLaunch which is very similar. I am still waiting for EasyLaunch to be ported, though.
***** This is a (can't say the word) GREAT program!!! I mean it's my favourite Hack!!! I use it again and again all day. That previeus application stroke has saved me! Thanx buddy for this free hack! Well done!!!!!!!!!!! A+++++++++++
***** Really great hack! One of my favourites! It makes life so much easier! Thanks very much!
***** Best hack ever by far. I used it a long time on me Handera330. Now, I got a Sony TJ25 from my company. Any way to create an EasyLaunch for OS 5? There is nothing more helpful than EasyLaunch, I'd just love to get it back!
***** Excellent program. Saving me lot of time as I have to access different software repeatedly. Works great on my CLIE NR70. Use it all the time and in fraction of a second switch between different progarams
***** I've used this before on my 6035 smartphone and it worked great (5 star). I can't get it to work properly with my Treo 300. Having problems getting the Treo 300 to recognize basic functions like "press and hold". Any help out there? As far as the program itself, it is great!
***** I have been using it for along long time. Just the best DA launcher around. Wish it would also do "Got to top" or "Got to bottom" as added features. Keep up the excellent work!!!
***** Excellent! I've been using this program for a long time now and it is extremely useful. Starting up the various applications on my Palm IIIxe is sooooo convenient with EasyLaunch! Simply superb!
***** Great hack! Makes finding things so much easier. Very useful... and that's something that's beginning to be hard to find.
***** This program works fine on my m100. Can open programs with a single stroke of the stylus. Very good!
***** The most important program you need for your Palm. Especially makes carrying out "copy","paste", "select all","power off" "show private records", "previous records", "page up", "page down" more efficient, but also launching programs is faster. The finest hack available without exception
***** Keep up the good work. Great app. Good support. Use it daily. Thanks!
***** This application is the reason that I got X-Master in the first place. I have over 6 MB in use on my Palm IIIxe mostly in applications. EasyLaunch allows me to swich between the ones that I use most with one action rather than going to applications and searching through catagories etc. Well done.
***** Good job! Useful and fun. Recommend you try it.
***** This is the best utility software for the palm... I used it for a long time... and now I have the best palm out there, a Tungsten C, and hacks are no longer supported. Any way to create an Easy Launch that works with System 5?
**** This is a fantastic program. Now I can launch my apps without using my stylus. One gripe though... if u execute the same stylus stroke twice, it will crash your palm. Other than that, no complains.
Lemmings v4.2
Lemmings is the implementation of the classic game originally created by Psygnosis (in 1991) for the Palm Computing Platform.
***** A blast from the past. An excellent transition to the Palm.
***** What can I say? I'm addicted!! For some reason, I find it incredibly amusing to save these furry little creatures meaningless lifes, only for them to continue being idiots. I love it! o.O.
***** Great game! Thanks im off downloading more lewels.. :D
***** Excellent game!!! Needs More Levels Though. A Must Have Game!
***** Fantasic piece of work!
***** Wow. I have a tungsten and this is one of the few games that works well on it. I'll probably end up buying other level packs. Brilliant. Sure beats doing excel spreadsheets on the commuter train!
***** This is a classic game I played in the past 5 years, one of my favorites, and in most ways a fun puzzle game to keep those silly guys alive, from the traps. The #1 in the past, the #1 now!!
***** This is the most full featured, rich game palm has to offer. It has manyt options and runs smooth. It is my favorite palm game ever!!!
***** For the guy who asked how to turn off the sound, I have a palm zire and the option is under the main menu-> Prefs -> General -> Game sound -> off .. this is under palm OS 4.1 , if this doesnt work , let me know ..
***** To mute sounds: Menu - Game/Configuration. "Mute sounds" (also unclick "Enable tunes").
***** For this guy: [Aug 20, 2002] by where's the no sound option What if I don't want the f'ing sound? If there's no option from within the game (any game) itself, learn how to change your device's "f'ing" preferences. Simple, really. RTF'ingM.
***** Excellent game for the palm, hi-res support is awesome on the sony SJ handheld. version 3.3 runs like a charm on my m515. the game runs (but isn't too much fun to play) on my Palm V as well.
**** Great game! I had the older version on my sega gamegear.
**** Briliant game! The only unfortunate side is that the map packs are bloody expensive... maybe release more levels for free (perhaps those that appeared in the original game)?:)
**** Well... it is excellent... but would need more levels! As fun to play as it was on super nintendo like 8-9 years ago!!
*** What if I don't want the f'ing sound?
Album To Go v2.0
Club Photo, a pioneer & leader in on-line photo sharing and finishing, continues its award winning tradition with Version 2.0 of Album To Go, one of the first applications for image viewing on the Palm.
***** Amazing viewer, better than the stock viewer on my TE. Great job!
***** I was so happy when I heard about this. It is absolutely the best Palm software I have ever used. I am so impressed that it is free. After many hours of searching for a free image viewer for my sony Clie...I have come to a perfect piece of software.
***** Awesome!
***** Just too good! Better than any album manager I've used before! Thanks for making it! :)
***** LOVE IT!!
***** Outstanding, I use this to present quick slide shows of our company and products while meeting with new customers!!!
***** This is truly a program that has substance. Of all the programs that I have downloaded, this is one that should be supported financially. I ran this on my 505 and I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!
***** VERY cool. You can make the images up to 16-bit color, and in huge resolution, smaller to save space, or anywhere in between. I can't believe this is free!
***** Absolutely the best app ever for picture sharing..!
***** Can't believe this is FREE. It is excellent! Finally I can show my family's photos to all my friends. Thank-you very much!
***** Absolutely Superb. I can now bore everyone I meet to death with my holiday photos... One of the best bits of free Palm software I've used.
**** Nice, functional and robust bit of software... why is this free??? My only gripe is that the conversion from PC to Palm sometimes doesnt make best use of the palette.. small price to pay! Best image viewer I have used yet.
**** This program works nicely to load photos into my TRGpro. However, there are two significant problems. The desktop Help file refuses to run and later when finished with the program I find I cannot get back on the internet unless I reboot my Win 98SE system. If these problems are solved I'd give it an excellent rating.
*** This would get top marks, except it doesn't allow albums to be stored on my memory stick. Doh!
*** Nice program idea. broken support for tungsten's screen, desktop app is unstable and has a badly designed GUI.
** Protection Exception while trying to install. No Support for Sony Clie device with 320x320 Pixel available.
Maximus v3.46
Maximus is a Palm supplement personal organizer for home and business use.
***** Finally installed Greyscale version, Thank you, Thank you. Works like a charm on my Palm 111xe. Jack
***** Very cool program. Would be better if divided into time frames but it's still god. I only recomend it to people with COLOR palms. Otherwise, it would look.... well horrible!
***** Awesome it now coincides with datebook already on my palm...........just what I was looking for.
***** Superb program, highly recommended freeware. Unparalleled clear and straightforward monthly view, with clear marvellous icons, and option to shade in days if you like. Accept that this isn't a replacement for more complex datebook programs, nor is it a program linked to date book. Great for shading in your work timetable, or whatever. Suggestions: make navigation to different dates/months easier, eg getting to the month 18 months from now (can we have a "go to" button with a calendar similar to Palms datebook. Also, increase the size of the back/forward arrows at the bottom of the screen which navigate back/forward a month. Superb program if you have simple needs such as work rosters !!!
***** Beautifully designed but rather superfluous given the lack of linkages to Datebook or Agendus. This program illustrates a basic fact about Palm software: aesthetics cannot be a substitute for functionality.
***** Since my datebook is well laid-out, I often yearn to have a month view of other stuff I am doing - solution: use tealglance for datebook and maximus for fun stuff. Very nice.
***** It is really cool!
**** I wish this is a bit smaller. A commercial one called "MonthPlanner" at palmgear is a lot smaller and does similar. That one works for B/W palms as well. Thanks.
*** Maximus is a really excellent idea, but if Maximus was integrated to replace the system datebook's month view as a hack, it would be golden! I would not bother writing my calendar dates in Datebook and then switching to Maxim and marking the same events there separately. Unfortunately it is impossible to allocate any of the nice icons and alarms to existing topics of the Datebook.
*** This version won't even start up on a noncolour palm. Can we please have a black/white version ??? Please ???
*** Provides useful "at-a-glance" graphical display of appointments, etc. for the selected month, using a wide selection of icons (alarms and written notes can be appended to icon entries). However, there seem to be a few minor, but annoying, bugs (see below). In short: Maximus is a really excellent idea but I don't yet feel that I can rely on it for accurate information (though I'd very much like to)!
*** The idea is fair and they have tried to make it look nice, at least. But performance is pretty unresponsive, with all those animated texts and cursors that cannot be disabled... somehow gives me a feel of a Windows 95 software rather than Palm application! But still, if this was integrated to replace the system datebook's month view as a hack, it would be golden! At least a way to write notes for dates internally would help a lot. I would not bother writing my calendar dates in Datebook and then switching to Maxim and marking the same events there separately.
* Hey guys, I e-mailed the company and they said they're trying to see if they can make a b/w version. There's hope!
* Fatal exceptions everytime on my IIIc.
* Looks really cool-- if you have a color Palm! B/W version would be great, please come out with one.
* Why, just why color only? Sad...
bee
The bee flutters, and collects honey.
***** Hard game. U'll need quick reflexes to make it through. Quite fun though. I understand that N.I. has a style with all of its freeware Palm games, but this is one of those games where i wish u can suspend and pick off where u left later on.
***** This is one of two games on my palm. The other is Warfare. I was addicted to this crazy little game so I gave it to my girlfriend. She became addicted too. This might be the best freeware game ever written on any platform. I cannot speak highly enough about this game.
***** A great game... To answer an earlier reviewer.. you can turn the sound off... just just tap the preferences button on the screen with your stylus. it brings up a menu...
***** I have three arcade games I downloaded from this author and they are just like haveing gameboy games on my visor for free. They are so fun. Thank you for making all your games free.
***** This gameis hard, fun and addictive! best palm game I have played so far! You have to get it!!! Sooo many levels!
***** Such an awsome game!!!! Very addicting and it's totally free!!
***** Very good and VERY addicting! I find myself up till early morning saying 'Ok, one more time'.
***** Excellent game !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you won't believe it's for free.
***** Muy entretenido...no se lo pierdan...muy chido.
***** Great game. Lots of fun. One bug, though: if you land on a brick at an angle, you will pass right through it - can be annoying and throw you off.
***** This is the best game I have ever, ever played!! Woo-hoo!
***** I've been hooked onto this game eversince I downloaded it. Thx for making it free. :>
***** I just got a Palm and this is the best game i've seen yet. Awesome graphics. Thanks for making this available.
***** Excellent game and very addictive!
**** Really fun, addictive, and far more difficult than the description communicates! Wish it didn't crash my Palm at random tho. (Palm Vx running PalmOS 4.1) Oh, and you should have an option to turn the sound off.
Clie Picture Converter v0.2
You have a clie with camera and no memorystick ? You have no way to see picture taken from your clie on your computer ?
***** U saved my life!!
***** Worked Perfectly for my TH55. Apparently another way is to save it on a memory card but I don't have one.
***** I just want to say a big THANK YOU to the author of this software ! I have been searching for something like this for months. It converts my Palm T3 pdb to wav.
***** Perfect. Just what I was looking for. I have a TH55 and worked flawlessly. I even used it to convert pdb to wav!! the process is the same, and when finished you just rename extention jpg to wav!!
***** Perfect. Just what I was looking for. I have a TH55 and worked flawlessly. Please, I need the same program to convert PDB to WAV, the sound files from sound recorder.
***** Very much needed utility, easy to use and works wonderfully. It also converts .wav files also! just change the extension after conversion. Great Little App.
***** THANK YOU!, You dont know what you've done, THANK YOU VER MUCH
***** This is a great program. Exactly what I was looking for.
***** FINALLY i can use the pictures/email them to friends/etc. GREAT stuff & so easy to use. THANK YOU! MERCI BEAUCOUP!
***** Awesome, just took a little bit of time to figure it out. Now I can look at pictures!!! Awesome.
***** It does what Sony should have done! Unfortunately date information gets lost in the conversion process.
***** Now my search is completed. Many thanks.
***** Simply genious.
**** Good program I like it, it works. I have used once, it works with multiple archives in one drag and drop operation. Thank's.
**** Good programs! But my TH55 can't use it.
MedCalc v5.1
MedCalc is the most full-featured medical calculator for Palm OS (68 formulas and scores, localized for 3 languages, results database).
***** Simple, complete, efficient, serious, no doubt the best tool I've ever seen for on the ward calculation. And it's free! Thanks a lot to the author, if everything could be that way!
***** Excellent program... one thing is for the next version, would be to allow the user to input formulas or add on more info... thanks!!!!
***** Much more user friendly now and useful as ever. Thanks for keeping it free :)
***** Ma quanto è carino e utile questo programma? consigliato a tutti gli Infermieri ed i medici tecnofili....è per voi!
***** Exelente. Programa muito util para anestesistas, intensivistas e médicos que tratam de pacientes críticos.
***** A "must have" for every physician. I'm using it every day since year 1999. Only one sugestion: to add Sodium and Potasium in the chemistries units conversion. Congratulations to the author for the updates and for keep it free!!!.
***** I am a GP and anaesthesiologist and have found this suite of calculators very useful.
***** The best out there. Nothing can compare to this. Mathias Tschopp does a great service to the medical PDA community. Great calcs and formulas. Easy to use. A must for medical students and residents. More power to MedCalc!
***** I am an cardiac sugeon working at India. This an excellent program. Hope a provision to enter formulas is there in next version. A must download for any intensivist.
***** Excelente programa sobretodo la parte de la ayuda donde explican las formulas y las utilidades de estas, aun no encuentro la versión 4.3 en español alguien la tiene ya?
***** Muy util para la práctica diaria, compacto y con la información justa.
**** It's help me in bedside calculating works. Very usefull, especially for medical student and medical proffesional.
**** Very useful for technicians in training. I appreciate the author keeping this a freeware.
**** Fácil de usar, conciso, con referencias y anotaciones de la fórmulas, realmente muy práctico, hay que agradecer al autor y al traductor al español, excelente trabajo. La sección de EBM es corta y creo que se puede trabajar más llí, altamente recomendable el programa para médicos aun posgraduados ya.
**** Mostly very useful (although some things I can work out in my head!). Am struggling to work out how to enter decimal points on my Tungsten T. Any clues?
SoftModem v1.0
Send/Receive Emails and browse the Internet without a hardware modem.
***** This kind of software only comes once a year!
***** Greetings from Mexico to the guy who did it! HAHAHA!! really man!I still have a couple of friends trying to figure out the server settings, it's fun to watch them asses trying to hack it! Great joke!
***** Boy did this come in handy while on vacation! Thank you for your fantastic work and dedication in making my palm pilot truly portable!
***** What a load of poop. :)
***** Great joke.
***** Perfect! The best ever. This is the best hoax ever on these webpages. If only I can get my hands on the guy who started this.
***** This rocks! I hoooked it with my dsl service and now I can download things directly to my pda! Thanks man!
***** You dope! Look at the date for this release..it's a joke..get it...surf the net without a modem..on the first of April..duuhh.
***** Have to try it to believe it. Was getting 53K on a Palm Vx.
***** Dweeb! I was so excited when I saw this!
***** Thanks a lot for this program ! Makes one aware ...
**** My friend tricked me with this-but not the way he was trying to. He tricked me into thinking that he was tricked.
*** It's cool but I can't connect to my ISP because this thing never remembers my settings. :(
*** This is probaly good but it just comes up with the same thing each time. Can any1 help me?
*** This is so great. I can get a weather report from right where I stand!
dietcalc v2.4.8
A Great Diet Journal.
***** Super little program; best I've found to use with the "points" system. Using it in conjunction with info that can be obtained from http://www.dwlz.com/palmpilot.html make restaurant dining so much easier.
***** I was VERY excited to find this Palm software. Since I follow the Weight Watcher Plan and journal daily, it was exactly what I was looking for! However, when I sync my Palm I noticed that it does not backup my journal info. Any suggestions / help? Thanks!
***** EXCELLENT program! Easy to use, incorporates easily with the food list (a database program)and replaces the WW slide rule perfectly. A good thing to have when shopping also to do calculations before you take the bad stuff home!
***** This is great! Thanks.
***** Thank you, thank you, thank you. I've been searching for a program that can be used with my PDA and you've done it. Extremely grateful!!!!
***** THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! What a great way to easily keep track of points and have a points calculator always on hand!! So far I've found no flaws....thanks so much!!!!!!! Just what I needed to keep my weight down!
***** This program is just excellent, it's all I need to track how much food I have to consume with my work outs. To everyone who can't get how to use it, go to this web site and read documentation: http://www.ruffboy.com/wwcalc.htm.
***** The best palmware I have come across yet. I bought my wife a PDA just to use this software. This is all you need to avoid sending 100$ or more a month to the money-hungry WW corp.
***** This is EXACTLY why I wanted a Palm in the first place! It's an excellent WW tool - you much easier to carry around than the journal. Very easy to use - especially for someone like me who's computer illiterate.
**** This is a great program for WW members; it puts just what I need in the 'palm' of my hand. However, it has NOT been updated for Flex points, so you still have to do some calculations. Also, I don't think it backs up onto the PC desktop.
**** It's a good little piece of software... I downloaded it for my mom. It follows the program exactly and she's pleased with it. Note, it does not back up nor can you edit the info from anywhere but your PDA.
**** An excellent, simple to use program that tracks Weight Watchers points. Lost 5lbs in two weeks! Could do with some on line help, as there are still some parts I can't understand.
**** This program works great for tracking Weight Watcher points, but is even better with food lists and restaurants lists that can be download from certain support web sites and message boards. True there is no online support but users of this software are online and available to help with any questions.
*** This was an excellent tool and very user friendly until WW changed to the Flex Point System, now it is not so easy to use. I hope it gets updated soon.
** What the program description doesn't make clear is that this is a diet calculator for WEIGHT WATCHERS, therefore you must have all the information from Weight Watchers and understand their points system, before you can make use of it. Also no on-line help whatsoever.
Tool One Color v1.15
ToolOne color show information of your PALM based handheld.
***** Very rich page, fine graphic, nice for using. Simply: really very good.
***** ToolOne is a great utility for just about any Palm OS handheld. If you don't have it, get it.
***** It looks very good. It's very fast. It's very neat. It's very cool. It gives me all the information I need in a hurry, and I use it daily. Most excellent: 6 of these ****** in my book.
***** Excellent freeware. Thank you.
***** I really like your program, which helped me a lot. I appericeate it. Thanx
***** Looks great, but no serial number info and causes "Fatal Exception" when choosing external memory function. Using 8MB Handspring flash module in a Visor Prism.
***** Really great tool -- a memory and battery reader in one. I no longer need two different applications. and it looks great, too. thanks!
***** Works great on my Sony Peg N610-C! Thanks for the great freeware!!
**** Very good freeware but why does it show 8 bit colour on my Clié N70c/N770C?
**** Good info. I like the layout and color scheme. But like William, my Visor Prism coughs up a Fatal Exception on the external memory function (both on MemPlug CF and Xircom springboard modem). With nothing plugged in, it recognizes that fact and correctly reports only one card. Suggestion: Display the CPU speed.
**** Looks nice graphically. On my Visor Prism, it could not read what processor I had. It also caused a fatal alert when I tried to read my memory card (Memplug Spring Board Module)
**** A very useful program. My only problem is that it produces a Fatal Alert error when you try to read the memory on a Springboard Flash Memory module. Alas.
**** Spotlight didn't work on my CLIE 710C--started out ok, but the the screen started blacking out. Seems ok otherwise--I use it daily. Thanks.
*** Err... no support for non colour displays...
*** If you have a color PDA, this app seems fine. However, for those of us with greyscale or worse B/W, some screens are hard to read, others are impossible.
IR Monitor v0.7
IR Monitor is an application which can be checked infra-red signal easily with your PalmIII/IIIe/IIIx/V/Vx.
***** Works fine on my Tunsten T3, a record/send option would be really great.
***** Works fine on my M125! Very impressive! I'm glad the new version came out. It was dissapointing when v.5 didn't work on my handheld.
***** Program worked exellent on my m130 and zire, does what it says , but, it doesnt work on my tung.E, it doesnt detect anything, plz fix this.
***** Works great with my Palm M515 and I love the sound & colour!!
***** Super product; I have solved palm and remote divice propb.whith it so EXCELLENT.
***** Works fine on Palm IIIxe. I have NO clue as to what the 1 or 10 "switch" at the top is for, and what is the SOLID "bargraph" display for?
**** Works great on my Sony Clie T665C, I like it!
**** It works great on my Palm III C handheld...
**** Works for my Treo 300!!
**** Works great! But POSE reports several memory leaks; I'm not sure if these leaks cause further problems. Anyway, it's a good job.
**** It works fine on my HandEra330. I have used it many times to diag. problems with remotes and other IR devices.
** I know I would Love this program IF IT WOULD ONLY WORK!!! I have a palm III running os 3.0.2 and it constantly gives me a "fatal exception". Please fix or find out why.
** Why it's not working on my m505?
** Doesn't seem to work on the m505
* While this seems like a wonderful product, it is not compatable with my Zire 71.
Audio Driver for PalmOS(R) v1.2
Audio Driver for Palm OS(R), composed of Audio Driver and Sound Pro, is designed for providing environment that allows Palm Powered(TM) handhelds to play WAVE Sound.
***** It's just what I wanted. Sounds just like a radio on my AlphaSmart Dana!
***** The key to getting this to work is to make sure that the CPU is not overloaded. On my Handspring Treo the driver works fine only when my WAV files are 8KHZ and I play on the lowest volume. I use the Shareware program Goldwave for conversions.
***** It deserves 5 stars. It gives good result on such a poor device like my Visor Platinum. The only thing is that I cannot make my own audio files using the provided utility for wave-to-pdb conversion; the result is terrible (I tried 8 KBit mono waves as the document instructs). Waiting for improvements.
**** Good software! my visor Pro can now play wave file. Anyway for my PDA those wav i encoded 22khz rate cannot play well. I try until 8khz only can play well. sound kinda soft. But overall l love the software/driver
**** I am using version 1.1 and, except for the very annoying duck sound which comes up when events occur, it is a very nice feature for my m130. I tried to replace the duck sound with one of my generated wave sounds, but then the whole package crashed. making the sounds more customisable would be highly appreciated.
**** Well worth a download, the quality of the sound is not brilliant but play WAVE files through a pizeo buzzer is quite an achivement! works great on my m105. Thought I can't seem to delete sound databases.
**** The sound quality is rather poor, but it is a good attempt at an issue ingored by Palm.
*** This is good, it works, but the sound quality is very low (although you can sorta tell its a voice etc) and it slows some sounds down to half speed and it stops sometimes before the song is done (less often on low volumes) okay, but definatly watch for improvede versions (they have a few bugs to work out) I left it on anyway and am glad I have it.
*** I have a palm 505 and I like that I can receive music on my pda. I wish palm would have took notes from sony clie on built-in audio sound. Anyway, the audio driver sound ruff on my palm 505. What's the deal?
*** This is fairly good accomplishment, as was stated, but the sound quality leaves something to be desired on my M130.
** I manage to install it on my Zire 71, turned the driver on, and did a soft reset. Nothing happens. no extra sound or whatsoever..
** This program only maks a rough, broven note when playing any wave files, even the samples. I am using Palm515.
** In a Palm 505 the sound quality is poor and only plays the first few notes of any given sound. It still need much work to make it worthwile.
** The example program only plays the first second of the audio on my Visor Neo. Probably the driver still need much work.
* Nothing happen after installed in my M500. I can't hear the sound from MusicPlayer. Also, I can load aDrvPublic.h in SD.
Yahdice v2.01
Yahdice is a feature-rich PalmOS 2.0+ clone of the world's most popular family dice game, Yahtzee.
***** This game is magnificent. Highly reccomended, and compact!
***** FABULOUS game! Well done, easy to use, what a good job!
***** My family liked it so much on my Palm that they downloaded it for their own! Great game!
***** Let's rock and roll! well done! The best clone of yatzee iv'e ever seen or played on my palm! And all for (free).
***** If you like Yahtzee, then this is for you. Very much like the "real" version.
***** Good fun, simple and true to the original. No problems with it at all. Thanks.
***** Great game, as good as the original! Simple, user-friendly interface, up to 4 players, fun and addictive! one of the best palm games out there, and it's FREE!
***** This is a commercial quality game offered as freeware. User-friendly interface and addictive gameplay. No palm should be without it!
***** This is the *best* freeware Yahtzee clone out there! YAtzee Game 2.0 is okay but not as polished...
***** Best game I have downloaded to date! My 8yr. old son and I have played it every night for the last 3 mo. His high score is 600! Thank You for developing it.
***** I never knew how to play a "Yahtzee(tm)"-type game until I downloaded Yahdice. This game is excellent and the author listens to your suggestions! :-) Great job!

***** Yahdice is so addictive... it's an example of what makes a great Palm game. Best of all it's free!
***** Great game. Like normal Yatzee. Thanks for making it freeware!
Rally 1000 v4.2
Rally 1000 is a road race card game. You compete against the Pilot to reach the destination first. It's fun and addicting.
***** I've been playing this game since I had a Palm IIIc. Still running strong on my Treo 600. Thank you for years of fun.
***** There's a reason all reviewers gave it 5 stars. ***** Highly recommended!!
***** Just like the real card game... well done.
***** Don't even think about it! Just download it and see for yourself. A sickenly addictive game that I've played since getting my first palm (a Pilot 5000). Thanks for making it freeware - very generous.
***** I loved this game so much that I played it about 3000 times over less than a year. This frequent taping of the Graffiti area might or might not be the cause of it becoming slowly inoperative up to the point when I had to send my Palm m500 back to the manufacturer for fixing.
***** This game is AWESOME!! I had a version of Mille Bournes on my old pocket pc, and I was desperately trying to find a version for Palm. This is it!!! It is just like the original French card game. It's very addictive, a wonderful way to pass the time. Nice graphics in this version, too!
***** Excelent game! But if I get caught playing it at work again im done!
***** I am addicted to this game in an older rev. I've played 100s of games and split at the difficult level. I hardly play anything else. Great job.
***** I LOVE this game!
***** Very well done, like the previous review, one of my favorite as a kid, and today, and since nobody aroud me like it I was out of luck, util this amazing version game out. Great game, keep on writing code.
***** Very good game, usually I play those free games once or twice and delete it but this one I keep palying again and again and never get bored.
***** GREAT JOB ! This is a great game for the palm. HIGHLY reccomended. Perfect clone of Milles Bornes.
***** This is *the* best version for the Palm, esp. the IIIc. Get it, install it, play it.
***** This is my other favorite game from when I was growing up. (My two favorites are Mille Bornes and Cribbage). Dave Mayes definitely has a fan here. I really like the upgrade, although I do miss "Death to Pilot!"

SkyChart 2003
A no-frills planisphere program aimed at the casual stargazer.
***** SUPERB!!!!, GREAT PROGRAM, I LOVE IT. IT WORKS GREAT ON MY TUNGSTEN E AND BEST OF ALL IT'S FREE. THANKS AND MERY CHRISTMAS!!!
***** Perfect for a novice like myself. My astronomy inclined friends are impressed by the features and accuracy. Small program size and loads fast. Different colored stars are a nice touch. Now if I could just get away from the city lights! This one will be staying on my clie permanently. Thanks!
***** Best program I ever know It's very easy to use it, very intuitive, great for beginners.
***** Installed on Tungsten E expansion card with no problem. I love it!
***** Installed this program on my Palm T3 And have not had any problems. An oustanding little program with many features. Now I have a clue as to what I am looking at. Thank you
***** Fantastic! Some of my stargazing friends are considering buying a palm only to get this installed.
***** Awesome little program!!! I'm amazed at the features included with this gem. As an amateur star gazer who lives in a rural area, this is just what I need to lear more about the stars. Thanks Ivan!!!
***** Great program for any person to easily make out the majority of large and smaller constellations - well done, excellent piece!
***** Incredible!! love the nightmode!! great when sailing. Highest possible recommendation works great on my Treo270.
***** This is some of the best freeware I've ever tried. Everyone I've beamed SkyChart to simply loves it. Great for Scouting camp outs, it is my most shared program enjoyed by all ages.
***** Excelet progam I'm simply amazed at what this little program can do,keep ut the good work and I'll be waiting for the next version.
***** Goes way beyond "no frills". Very handy little tool! Look at a star or planet in the sky, point at the dot on the screen, and it tells you what you're looking at (star and constellation name). Thank you for this very cool program!
***** Uno de los mejores programas para no expertos. Facil identificacion de planetas y constelaciones.
** I really liked this program until I tried to use the Sunrise function. It crashed my Clie PEG-SJ20, and it would not let me recover my data. Luckily I had just done a backup that morning.
Igzo the dolphin v1.0
Let the dolphin act well.
***** SO ADDICTIVE!! I wish they would make a sequel....
***** The most additive game I have played on os palm. Took me a while to find out I could change the dolphins speed.
***** Good game. For all of you who want to turn the sound off just go into prefs and turn off game sound. Maybe system sound too.
***** Man, I haven't seen a game so addictive like this in a long time... This is probably one of the author's greatest games. But I need to find a silencer hack to kill some time in study hall...
***** Great game, perfect combonation of strategy and reflexes. Love it!
***** Hard to put down! Especially nice for dolphin fanatics.
***** IGZO THE DOLPHIN... JUST MOST ADDICTIVE GAME I EVER PLAYED! Play till your thumb breaks and you run out of battery power! Excellent idea for a game. But I wish the author would make it less addictive...its too addictive =(
***** Great game. very addicting. A must for your palm.
***** Ecco the Dolphins brother igzo is tight.
***** Excellent game!! Are there more levels or are any more being written?
***** I can't believe how simple and addicting a game can get...with some surprising depth! I'm killing some definite time in class with this baby ;)
***** May seem silly at first, but then the hook sets in and you start having fun. Good times.
**** Very enjoyable diversion. Would appreciate a silent option for classroom play, though.
**** This is so simple, yet addictive ! Come compete with us on the Top scores board ! (My name on the board is Gepeto)
Delphi v2.01
Delphi is a free, accurate and intuitive astrology program.
***** When Istarted out in astrology more than 30yrs ago I had to bring 2 briefcases for all the books needed to do charts, now I carry a "Palm" about the size of a pack of cigaretts, but much more addicting. Now I can do charts in the "Palm" of my hand thank you very much.
***** i've been using Delphi for years (first on a Kyocera 6035 and then a 7135), and it's absolutely first-rate. i'm more of an enthusiast astrologer, though I was raised in a family of professional astrologers. Delphi's features include almost everything I need, but I do miss other bodies like Chiron and Eros. I give it five stars, though, sadly, Delphi 2.0Ä
***** I've been using this program for a few years now, and it's fabulous. No longer do I have to carry round an ephemeris, tables of houses and an atlas! My only gripe is that it doesn't have Chiron or the four major asteroids.
***** Simply excellent, wonderful, priceless, awesome. I love it! Can't believe it is freeware!!! (This program does calculations for professional astrologers).
***** Simply excellent !!!
***** Really wonderful. It was just what I was looking for. I am a new palm user and had no trouble with it. Wheel is good and lots of goodies for the astrologer. Dream come true.
***** This is the best astrology program, I want to Know if the super astrology program works in the new OS 5. especific in Clié NX70V/U.
***** I was looking for quite some time for an astrology calculator for the palm. years ago i wrote one in basic, for the PC, and i was almost ready to go ahead and learn palm programing to port it to the palm. don't need to do it anymore! this one is absolutely excellent! it's easy and intuitive to use, and it appears to be pretty accurate. it also has a database of international locations, even small cities in remote countries, which is unbelivable! outstanding work! i can't belive it's freeware!
***** Priceless is just a little word! The precision and detail of this software is incredible!! Thanks a LOT!
***** WOW!!! This compares to top PC software like Solar Fire. All we need now is an ephemeris to complete the set. Congrats to the software writer - this is simply fantastic!
***** Very easy to use, extremely intuitive, I couldn't be happier with this program, it saves charts too!
***** Simply excellent.
**** Does anyone knows how to calculate the relation between the birth theme and th situation of the planet now ? This is virtually the only thing that I didn't find easily in this software ! Please answer as a new review as my e-mail adress is no longer valid. Thanks.
*** Considering the fact that everyone else seemed to rate this program with ***** (five stars), my review may not apply to everyone who chooses to download the Delphi software. Although the program supplied much information in reference to my astrology, I have been unable to translate the information into normal language. After submitting my personal information (name, date, time, country, city, etc.), a chart with many symbols appeared. I was thinking that some type of translation would be included, however, none was.
ChemTable v2.22
ChemTable is a freeware Periodic Table application that runs on monochrome Palm OS handhelds.
***** This is an excellent application for natural scientists - works perfectly on my Tungsten T2. Thanks! A future idea, Robert (if you have got the time): Adding a molecular weight calculator would be cool. Imagine you type CH3CH2OH, hit a button and then pick the M.W.!
***** Awesome! Really well put together, well thought out, accurate (maybe too accurate!) very useful. great as well that it keeps being updated so is always up to date!
***** Installed on the memory card of my Tungsen E. Very nice and I thank you very much.
***** It is really fantastic to garther all information into the table... Thanks Robert!!! Great job!
***** Excellent as stated, really useful and straightforward... Thank you.
***** Thank you very much!! I am a student majoring in Biology and it is very helpful.
***** More information than I could ever dream for. This package is THE BEST table I have ever come across. On top of it, it keeps getting updated!
***** Thanks! Great software, and free! What else could you ask for (besides being able to use it during an exam)!
***** All chemistry students must have this program!
***** Great work thanks this will definitely help my daughters in their school work thanks again.
**** A great program! I never knew a periodic table could have so much complicated information! I'm only thirteen, but I'm sure I'll be able to use this until I'm in my old age. Just one reason why it's only four stars; could you make a colour version? I've got an m130 which has 16-bit colour, but most applications are 1-bit, 2-bit, 4-bit or 8-bit. Add another 65534 colours and I'll give it five stars!
**** Amazingly usefull, but a little color wouldn't hurt. I've been using an m100 for years and I'm fed up with black and white now that I've got a tungsten t2. Add a little color, and the fifth star comes in.
** Very useful, but I had to delete it. It crashes my T3 when I try to exit the program.
** I've used this program for several years and have enjoyed the info, however, the new version crashes when I exit on my T3 and I have to do a reset.
MatchWho v2.1f
This program may help you to find out who you are looking for.
***** This is really cool!!!!!!! I wish there were more costumes thoe o well.
***** This is an excellent program. Very well thought out, and doesn't take up much space. Police officers who carry Palms could use this.
***** Wohoo!!! This program is cool!!! Thank man! Well, gotta go and play some more with it!!!
***** I think its a great program. I have already reviewed it, so I will just post what I feel needs to be added or updated. Firstly, this is a great software. I love it. Ok, now, has the author ever seen James Bond, the movie For your eyes only? They have quite a similar piece of software but the only difference is that you can manually change the shape of the face and other features. Let me explain. You can make the nose bigger or smaller, the chin bigger or smaller, etc...instead of choosing from pre-determined, pre-defined shapes. This will really help a lot. I don't know how it can be implemented, but it will surely be great. Secondly, if it is not possible, then even more shapes please! :) I can't wait to see the full version of this software. It is really going to be great! And the author is good at updating it too!
***** I find this an excellent and fun to use program. It also takes up very little space.
***** It's cool! & I want samurai hair :-)
***** Great software. I'll wait for the release version.
**** The latest 1.3b does not work properly (at least not on the Palm emulator): no menu's so no male/female selection, and the emulator reports memory leaks. Great idea though...was so curious to the female's, patiently waiting for the release version!
**** Very good program and fun to play around with. Look forward to the full version.
**** Muito legal para usar !!! Very nice !!!!
**** I can`t wait to make my perfect girl with this cool gadget.
**** I'm a police and this stuff is just what I want. Very helpful. Well done.
*** It would have been real nice if we could attach such drawings to the Address book - both for Parctical, Humoristic, and pass-time reasons. Used to love it in my old Cassio.
*** Crashed my Clie' PEG-T615C to where I had to do a hard reset cause it wouldnt turn on after I exited the program. Was fun to test....
FUN2: Scrolliez v1.1
Drive your spaceship through an ever-tightening cavern filled with obstacles.
***** Very good program.. thanks! It give me very easy to calculate in any app.
***** Works absolutely perfect. I had the original HackMaster registered, but since one of the first versions of X-Master I stick with this. Meanwhile I tried others, e.g. Tealmaster: Reliabilty may be similar but X-Master is easier to use and you can not beat the price. The best thing is a fluent switching between various sets of hacks with XMSwitchSet. You can change from 2 to 20 hacks without any reset. On average I have above 20 hacks installed on my 500m and earlier on my Palm V and never had a problem with X-Master only rarely with badly written Hacks. Highly recommended.
***** v1.5 works fine on my Visor Neo. Had previously used EVPlugBase, which caused numerous soft and hard resets. No problems since I've switched. My hacks now work like a dream.
***** Great and well maintained! I had some crashes with the first version (I too use a Visor), but the upgrade came out quickly and solved them. Much easier to use than Hackmaster, and has some advantages over EVPlugBase (EVPlugBase is very unstable, and its authors aren't working on it anymore). I'm a registered user of Hackmaster, but I'm switching to X-Master. Good job.
***** This is a wonderful successor to hackmaster. I had problems with freezing with hackmaster, and have had no such problem with this. I am thrilled to be able to take advantage of the great hacks people have written. Thanks!
***** This is so far the best Hack Manager I've ever used. It shows what events hacks are using and it allows to delete a hack without have to uncheck it and go to system -> Delete. It can be set to be HackMaster look like and it reinstall automatically after reset. A must! :]
***** Warning! X-Master dated Jan 30 is known to crash Visor Platinums. Get the latest version (mine is Feb 02) to cure this problem.
**** Handles your hacks like no other. Sets are a boon (I use a Visor Deluxe and have had no problems since v1.1).
**** I have a Palm m105, and have previously been using Hackmaster, which caused many freezes and hard resets. I was not able to uninstall it. After installing Xmaster, it cleaned up all of the old Hackmaster junk and my preferred logo is back at last. I am waiting to see how it performs in the long term, but I am hopeful.
*** X-Master causes hotsync problems on my m105. The only way out is to disable all the hacks and do the hotsync.
* My Palm IIIxe is locked in a Fatal-Exception/Reset Loop after initial launch of X-Master. When I launched X-Master for the first time it stated that it would take over all HackMaster Hacks safely. After those friendly screens, my Palm Reset itself (P 'Boot-up' SplashScreen). then encounters/displays the Fatal-Exception Message with the (functional) soft-reset button. Pressing the soft-reset button begins the process over with no solution. Performing Hard Reset(backcover pin-hole) yields same results. X-Master/LinkeSoft's instructions DID NOT state to deactivate any extensions in HackMaster nor to uninstall HackMaster prior to installation or launch. Awaiting reply from support@linkesoft.com
* I had written this bad review for the Imager-X hack, but I later discovered that the cause of the crashes was X-Master. I am using a Handspring Delux. After placing this software on my Handspring, my PDA started to freeze and require a "soft reset". Despite this, I kept using the software until I required a "hard reset" later that day. I had all of those problems in one day. I removed the software and my Handspring runs fine now.
* This should be called crash-master because it put my Visor Prism in an infinite reset loop. I had to hard reset and lost all my data. I think I'll wait till version 10 before I try this again, unless other Prism users verify that there are no bugs with this version.
* This program, while it looks good, crashes and burns badly when ever I install various hacks (namely: Afterburner) and I have had nothing but problems with it. Also, because I'm paranoid, I installed McAffe Virus Scanner for Palm, and lo-and-behold, X-Master is infected with something called "Libertycrack" or something like it. Delete.
X-Master v1.5
X-Master manages PalmOS system extensions (aka Hacks).
***** Very good program.. thanks! It give me very easy to calculate in any app.

***** Excellent game with one exception. First, other complaints about having to jump pieces are flawed because the rules of checkers are that you must jump if able. That's what makes the game. However, the rules also say that if you cannot move you lose. The code has a tendency (when losing) to play for positions where it cannot move, thinking that this is a draw. Other than that, this game is great.
***** Great game! It's set up so that if you can jump a piece, you have to jump. It makes for a challenging and addictive game. Ability to step backward and forward thru game is great feature.
***** Easily installed on Tungsten E. Very nice. Thanks.
***** EXCELLENT game very addicting and very challenging. Me and my Kids love it.
**** Nice game. but just one problem, when the computer moves so you can jump a peice the game forces you to move there even if you don't want to. Using palm m105.
**** Nice free game, works well on new color palm 0s 5, and on the old b&w 3 xe !!!!!
**** Seemed easy to use...played an entire game first try.
**** I have no problem using this game - instructions are given! Small footprint makes it ideal for lower end Palms without much memory (e.g. M100) - well done. Any chance of a color version soon??
**** Nice checkers game. Draughts are for 10x10 game, Checkers is 8x8. The best freeware game for draughts (and for Palm) is "Dam" from Harm Jetten.
*** This is really hard to work. It took me three new games to finally figure it out. The game of checkers is fun, but I get tired of playing this. Some kids just wanna play checkers without practically playing for the opponent.
*** The game is good, but it sucks that you have to move where the palm tells you to move even when there is another move available.
** Only briefly tried this and it is not very obvious how to get it to play past a couple of moves. However once you have done this it plays a reasonable game. I would have rated it higher if it wasn't so akward to get it to play.
* This looks like it will eventually be fun, for now -- I can't use it. I was unable to get beyond the first pair of moves. Trying an "illegal" move (to see if I could get a hint of what I was doing wrong) caused my Visor Neo to reset.
Sea War v1.3
The remake of a popular seawar game played on paper by two human players.
***** THANK YOU TOMY!!! After loading and dumping this game 3 times I finally know how to place my ship! I had to drag myself away from the game, just to type this! YEAH YEAH YEAH!!
***** Great game except it would be nice to see in a two-player version.
***** Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, they create a Hi-res version for my Clie. This game rocks and is highly recommended. Having to click the Done button after the computer's turn is a small price to pay for such a killer game that is FREE...
***** Awesome game. Excellent rendition of "Battleship". Works perfectly on my Palm m105.
**** Excelent game. This keeps me amused for many hours on the train. Repeatedly clicking done is really anoying though. BTW: In case you haven't figured it out you drag the pen to place larger ships.
**** This is a great game and I like it a lot, but I wish it didn't force me to start at Level One everytime I lose...maybe I missed something 'cause I hate playing levels one and two!!
**** The way to place the rest of the ships is to drag the squares.. for example those ship which occupies 3 squres just drag three squares and u can place them.
**** Very good game, but I had an older version and I could play with friends as well as the computer...well, this one got four stars instead of five. Maybe the creator can do something:)
**** A great program. Two things to make it unbeatable. Make it playable by two people via IR. Two the sounds should represent what they are: Missiles through the air? An Explosion? A sinking ship? Perhaps the sounds could be assignable. Someone will soon make a sound set for the Sony polyphonic audio that rocks.
**** It will be perfect if u can play against another player via IR (or BlueTooth).
**** This is a great game, so far the best battleship clone I've been able to find for the Palm OS. If only you didn't have to click "Done" after everyother turn, maybe they'll fix that with the next version...
*** It really looks good... Seems like it'll be lotz of fun... But, can anyone enlighten me on how to place the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th ships? Coz I got stucked in the setup of 1st ships... Thankz! (^o^)
* Couldn't get the game to work with the grey version. Couldn't even get past the set-up screen. All it would let me down is place the one-square ships. If there was a way to get to the 2-, 3-, and 4-square ships (or whatever size they were) I couldn't get to it.
* Sorry - same problem as above. If there's a way to place anything other than the 1-square ships, it's not intuitively obvious. At least, not on the grey version. Can anyone help me out here - am I doing something wrong?
domino! v1.6
You play dominoes against three computer opponents and, I hope, have fun.
***** Excellent game, have it since ever and just can't quit. I know it is too much, but since the new technology is out, it would be grate to play with other Palm users ( Clié ) through Bluetooth, other than that CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!!
***** The game is excellent, no I coudn't agree more with Christian's comment, you should be able to know how many pieces you opponent has and the next player should be on the right, and also would be nice if you had the option to play with only one player... Hey congratulation nices game!!
***** This game is totally addictive, very much like its analog version. I play this game on my way to and from work. Prime PalmWare!
***** Cool game. Maybe with enough practice I can finally beat my wife at dominos!
***** Just the best game in my pilot just some little details like knowing how many pieces you opponent has left, and the next player to play is the one at your right no at the left!. But is it a great game!!
***** Love to play this game..as the others it would be nice to see how many dominos the other players have. Other than that I give a 4 1/2. Thanks, Jack.
***** Also for me is a COOL game. The only wish is to have a visual feedback of how many pieces have the others players.
***** Best game I have on my Palm. Congratulations to the producer.
***** Vaya! Que bueno que ahora puedo jugar domino en la palm! Nice game. Love it.
***** This game changed my life. I was not interested in computer games until I tried this game. Now I use the game as a welcome break to the daily routine. One question though, why is a great Spanish name like Luis not part of the competition?
***** I just want:
***** Un grandioso juego, Es una muestra clara de que un buen juego no tiene que tener grandes graficas. Espero con ansia que salga alguna nueva versión. Very good...
**** Fun game, well written. A suggestion to author: dominos should not be selected til release of stylus, you should have the ability to change your mind before lifting stylus (most games do it this way). Thanks.
Vexed v2.1B1
Vexed is THE classic Palm OS puzzle game. It's addictive, challenging, and is a must-have for your Palm.
***** I beamed the old B&W version to my girlfriend. Now she's on level 31 and I'm still stuck on Level 9. I'll never hear the end of this! A great game that rivals Bee for pure addiction. Thank you!
***** I just got my new zire 72 and i wanted some puzzle game for it... this game is awesome and with the 12 variety packs and the classic levels i installed i won't need another game for a loooooong time!
***** This is the best game I have on my palm!!!!!Very addictive. I love the new color version, and all the new level packs. This game is so great, the only problem is that my husband always steals my palm to play vexed. Thanks for the great free game!
***** Frankly I was sceptical about all the excellent reviews... until I started to play it... Omigosh! This is BLOODY addictive!! Best FREE game ever since DopeWar was designed...
***** I love this wonderful, challenging puzzle game even more now that is finally in COLOR. And has alternate version included with 60 NEW LEVELS? I think I am in heaven.
***** This will take me a few months. I never got bored with this excellent game!
***** That what I was dreaming of: one of the best Palm games ever now in color. Coool!
***** Vexed is incredible. If you don't have this get it. If you don't have a Palm, get one so you can play Vexed. The Children's levels are especially appreciated (only how do I get my prism away from my 6yo niece?) Thanks much to the authors!
***** A game you can't live without!
***** This game is worth to be the sole reason why one should get a Palm.
***** I hate this game. I am addicted to it and can't stop playing. Do not download this if you want to get any work done at your job.
***** Well it took me 1 month but I finished every puzzle...... with many sleepless nights. I'm hooked you got to get this one.
*** I would rate this 5 but the newer version I had blocks won't move. Its a good game but sort of the blocks plz. Have a Visor Edge (greyscale).
VFSi v0.51b
VFSi is an application which shows any kind of BMP images on VFS media.
***** The Image app in the Zire 72 cannot always open .jpg files, especially if you've moved them (using Filez) to SD. This application can! The bottom line: this program will open .jpg files no problem. An excellent program to add to any OS5 Palm...
***** I use it to view maps, which I scan or screenshot, on T|E. Great.
***** I'd try on my Clie T650, it's great. It let you freely browsing between folders on MS. Zooming and navigating. Simply to use. If it can handle jpg without depend on HW decode will be perfect.
***** Great! Works brilliantly on my Tungsten T! Hope the developer can keep this free for good! Gives ACIDImage and SplashPhoto a run for their money!
***** This viewer is exaclty what I needed. It can be improved, of course, but it's exactly what I desired. What astonished me was the clear picture, no little squares, nothing disturbing. I love it, even there's room for more improvments.
***** Best software jpeg viewer in my opinion! seriously, the performance on this is sooo much faster than some commercial software *(i.e. PiPhoto/AcidImage/etc) I just simply love this.... As a side note, for the text editor it'd be great if they add more support on the menu (change font size, cut copy paste, etc, even tho u can do this in a shortcut way). All in all, great!
***** Great work on this! I especially appriciate the support for the Tungsten 5-way nav and ARM native support! Even though this is not truly a file manager, it filled the holes that file managers left (any that I have tried). I gave 5 well deserved stars for the features and the slick intuitive interface. Way to go!
***** Works great on my Palm Tungsten W. All it needs is a .png/.gif plugin & it would be perfect. As it is, by far & away, its the best freeware imageviewer from a card.
***** Thank you for a great software! I use it on a palm m515 with a 64MB sd card and it works just great.
**** Works great and fast with the Tungsten T2 (using ARM plugin), using 256Mb card. It'd be nice to be able to set default zoom actions and keys for advancing through viewing pictures - slideshow ?
**** It works fine on my sj33. Is there plugin for gif? Thx.
**** Hi... i think that something is wrong with VFSi i was using this nice software... and when you don't close the image properly... (I say... when you turn off your PDA or switch to another software... and VFSi is showing an image)... the External Card is not properly detected and you have to reinsert it... (I have to warranty mine... because !!I THINK!! ... of this...) but... anyway it's a cool piece of software...
**** Works okay with Palm Tungsten E with arm software jpeg plug-in.
Timesheet by Sankey v1.2
Timesheet is a little application for anyone working in a company that is as obsessive about time reporting as my own, or for anyone who genuinely cares where their time goes to.
***** Just started using Timesheet and am finding it useful for tracking my consultation hours. Working well with my iQue 3600. Thanks!
***** This is a very nice program. I had one other time mgmt program before but this program performed much better. I like the color screen & the reporting abilities. Good Job!
***** Excellent basic program. I'm using it for a year long time study in a volunteer fire department to track time spent in 7 different administrative tasks. I love the summaries for the reports.
***** I've tried out several "punch clock" apps for my Palm, and dismissed Timesheet early on when I forst used version 1.0 a few months ago. But then there's v1.2. Kudos to Mr. Sankey for making a program that's powerful but simple to use. Having Timesheet around saves me at least an hour or two a week when it comes to figuring out my billable hours and really lets me see where my time is going. While the on-screen reporting limits the number of tasks (lumping projects with small durations into an "other tasks" category) the daily summary and export function seem to show everything. I haven't hit the upper task limit yet, but even if I do I like the program enough to juggle tasks if I have to so I can keep using it. Well done!
***** I'm so happy this timesheet. Because it's easy to use. Thank you to Sankey..
***** Excellent program!!! By using it I found out that the company that I work for was cheating me out of some hours while working the Grave Yard Shift.
***** Lean and mean. Arguably the best time tracker available today.
***** I think Mr Carlos of Switzerland is missing the basic philosophy behind Timesheet. This app was designed essentially for those working regular hours for a company, to help monitor how much time they spend on particular tasks. Even so, it can be very useful, I imagine, to those who work freelance like myself or otherwise observe flexible work hours. PTimLog was designed with a different purpose in mind, which explains why it is complicated and certainly bloated at 292kb.
***** After spending more time using Timesheet, I feel the need to qualify my previous hyberbolic praise. Although well-designed and user-friendly, the program has a severe handicap: daily and weekly reports are restricted to a maximum of nine tasks, a fact that is made clear in the program's Info pop-ups. The author has increased the maximum number of tasks in version 1.1.5 to twenty, but the reporting limit stays. This seems to me impractical and unrealistic considering that many jobs, even the simplest ones, involve multi-tasking. The new cap of 20 tasks is also illogical: why allow for 20 when those in excess of the 9-task limit will not be timed or reported anyway?
**** I think this software gets a credit for people who would like to timed their working hours so that their boss won't cheat them by the mintues.........
**** Nice and simple and more forgiving than Titrax.
*** Although the tasks seem to add up in the report when two tasks are done during the same day, the display seems to show the first task time, making me think the first task was overwritten, then when viewing the new task on the "today page" make sure you don't 'View" it while the PDA clock matched the start time or you'll get an annoying error message "start time must be before current time." It's annoying and frustrating, but it does eventually work.
*** It's ok. A little on the basic side - for consultants etc who need to keep track of actual billing time for more than one client (not necessarily only time worked). Good effort. Check out PTimlog for some ideas.
Button Launch v1.9
Button Launch is a utility to let you launch applications (and prefence panels) by combinations of the hardware buttons.
***** Great app...very useful. My only suggestion is that it could be just a little more elegant in appearance. It's not too pretty...but VERY functional. It's nice to not have to hunt for my frequently used apps.
***** I just can't imagine that I like this little thing so much. It is so much easier to press buttons than to find icons. Except that I'll be happier menus are named, and the "Next" item is replaced by names of these items. That way we can have different "next" buttons activating different apps. It's also nicer if the arrangement of the table would match the positions of the buttons.
***** This program really gets to hart of having a PDU by making it very easy to launch applications by just using the physical buttons on the PDA. After trying some of the other application launchers I always come back to Button Launch because it is easy to use and takes very little space on the PDA and gets the job done very well.
***** Great little app! A real timesaver! Thanks!
***** Excellent utility and free! Thanks!
***** Simple, useful, and effective. This is a GREAT application!
***** This is a great little program that works well. It's free and not a hack. I think the layout on screen could be a little bit clearer: the top and bottom (short and long tap) layouts should be the same as one another. I would move the labels for the outer buttons as far out as possible to make it easier to see which buttons are which.
***** This is a tremendous app, possibly the most useful one I've had on a Palm device, especially the Tungsten with its hidden silkscreen. I'm really grateful for the OS5 upgrade. Thanks, Stephen!
***** Thanks for this app and for making it OS5 compatible. I've used EasyLauch, but can no longer use it since OS5 doesn't support hacks. I agree with Alan... if it's possible to clarify which label goes with each button that woul be great.
**** Excellent program if you want such POWER. I rate it good only because I am looking for a program that will start one program when I tap the button and another when I hold it down. I don't want another intermediate screen -it just slows things down. Normaly I don't expect you to use more than 10 programs on such a regular basis so this would work well. If you can produce a "lite" version that will do this it would be a winner. Thanks for the program.
**** Neat Idea. I'm going to use it. Thanks for making it.
*** I've seen it used on other Palms (looks great) but dosn't work on my i705 (it frezzes) anyone know how to get it to work?
* Well, my buddy likes it on his OS5 palm T2, but it won't run on my Tungsten W, running OSv4.1 The screen turns blank & the system locks up. Any insights?
Sketcher v2.0
Sketcher is an easy to use multi-purpose application.
***** Awesome on my Zire 71! Amazing that it is free! Thank you a lot. PS there is a Plus version for sale, but you have to look to find out about it, no obnoxious interruptions. Far exceeded my expectations.
***** Wow - I upgraded to a Clie SJ30, but I was missing the notepad function on my old m105 until I found this. The ONLY free program I can find that does ALL of the following: Drawing, notes, list of all drawings with creation dates, proper display on hi-res screen. Thanks!!
***** Awesome program. Clearly superior to it's competitors. Would be greatly improved, IMO, if an undo function or an eraser is added (changing the background color means you have to start over). Also it would be nice to be able to select a default background image.
***** This is great! I thought that Note Pad was great- this thing is 150% better! I can't get over the different backrounds. Better yet, it's free! A GREAT tool!
***** Great app! Useful for tons of quick notes and tasks.
***** Did a Back Flip for this application, use it every day, shopping list, whatever... deleted all the other's... Absolutely Great. Works fine on my Visor. Thanks!
***** Erasing is done by selecting the background color.
***** It's really excellent, but am I missing the rubber funtion, I have difficulty in erasing or undoing my wrong stroke.
***** This is a great program! It produces very striking and professional looking sketches. I can't put it down!
**** A very usefull program ! I've two suggestions for improvements :
**** Great program - Definitely a must have! I only gave 4 stars because of one small problem. If you have a sketch drawn and then select a new background it clears your sketch without a warning confirmation message. Fix that and I'll give 5 stars.
*** Great!! but I have fatal excepceptions every time the alarm rings on my m515!?! (any known conflict with DiddleBug???). A more customizable alarm (like DiddleBug's) would be great. Luca.
* Damaged my palm. Reset did not help.
Plucker v1.0
Plucker is an offline HTML viewer for PalmOS® devices packaged with UNIX and Linux conduits and a Windows installer in Virtual Pascal.
***** This is one great piece of software!!! I use it for sites like Yahoo and USA Today for news, Movie Habit for reviews and Lots of other great sites All in the palm of my hand without the expensive modem and service. I also like the expandibility of the desktop software. They have it for Linux, Mac and PC. Thanks Guys!!!
***** Contray to what the previous reviewer said Linux users can run AvantGo, I know because that's what I used to do before I found Plucker. You don't need to be a degree in computer science, you just need to spend about half an hour reading the FAQ that comes with the program. It is a disservice to the average Windows user to suggest that they are incapable of this. Plucker is very powerful, very versatile and far suprerior than AvantGo. It may take a bit of learning but it's worth it.Contray to what the previous reviewer said Linux users can run AvantGo, I know because that's what I used to do before I found Plucker.

***** Of course, anyone who has only done thousands of click in his life thinks that executing a program on the command line is nothing less than extremely dangerous and difficult.... Great app, great thing that someone also takes into consideration the people who actually run a real OS.
***** This is by far the most worthwhile thing you will ever have to download for your Palm. It can get documents from the web or your computer. The most amazing part of it is the compression, I was able to compress JRR Tolken's Fellowship of the ring (600kb in txt format) down to an amazing 200kb! Keep up the good work!
***** Very, very good program... very handy. Thank you so much! I find it much easier to read large quantities of text on the palm screen (and take it anywhere!) than on a computer screen. I found this program very easy to use and along with WINHTTRACK it is unbeatable! And even with a greyscale screen the graphics I needed were very viewable. For what the palm is capable of (and you must think about this, not to expect too much) it is terrific.
***** Plucker is definitely a winner in converting large files. I have been converting many PDF files of 1000+ pages (via html intermediate output) with only rarely parsing errors. The output produced by Plucker is very readable and the document reader is very nice to use. My core application for managing all documents and images stored on CF memory card.
***** Impossible to rate this excellent program any better. The previous reviews were of an earlier version; the current version lets you simply right-click on the file you want, and Plucker will drop the translated and ready to load file in the same
