If you have a PalmPilot™ you know what all the buzz is about. This PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) from 3Com® has revolutionized the handheld computing market -- and it can revolutionize your life! To-do lists, email, daily and weekly calendars, basic spreadsheets, a memo pad, a calculator, your favorite computer game -- all this and more can reside on a pocket-size machine not much larger than a pack of playing cards.
But as handy as the PalmPilot is, there are a few things that don’t come in the box -- namely information on all the things your PalmPilot can do and a slew of PalmPilot shareware. That’s where The Complete PalmPilot™ Guide comes in. Written by a PalmPilot devotee who maintains a PalmPilot FAQ Web site and two newsgroups, this guide provides essential tips and tricks that every PalmPilot user should know.
My screen presses aren’t registering. What should I do? I’ve just lost all my data on my PalmPilot -- now what? How do I perform a HotSync? Is the 1MB PalmPilot faster than the 512K version?
You’ll find answers to these and dozens of other common (and not-so-common) PalmPilot questions in this handy guide.
You’ll also get a thorough run-down and review of all the major commercial and shareware/freeware applications, and inside tips on installing and using these programs, as well as a CD-ROM containing over 140 shareware and freeware applications -- including games, productivity tools, spreadsheets, and more.
Make the most of this handy device with The Complete PalmPilot Guide !
You Get Over 140 Shareware and Freeware Applications on theenclosed CD, including:
Q-Mate -- a finance application that’s compatible with Quicken Doc e-text reader -- an application that lets you read text of any size Klondike -- a solitaire card game J-File -- a shareware database application ReDo 2 -- program that allows you to create repeating To Do’s Tricorder -- scan for intelligent life (just like they did on Star Trek)
