What Bible programs have people used on their Palms?  I'm looking at
"St John Reader" at PalmGear.  It has two translations of the Bible
plus a couple of other books like St. Augustine's "Confessions"
But it looks to be brand new and I haven't downloaded it yet.

I'm getting a mite tired of reading ebooks off the computer, and am
looking for a palmtop suitable for use as a bookreader.  This means good
screen resolution, long lasting battery power, a reasonable amount of
storage (I might consider as low as 8M, but would actually prefer ...

Is there a Palm program that will permit me to do a Boolean (or other
logical operator-like search) of a group of documents on an SD card on
my T3?

Help !! My m515 has been working fine up till now, syncing via the original
USB cradle. All of a sudden it wont conect, giving the message 'The
connection between handheldand the desktop could not be establishe'      I
though maybe it was a cradle problem (having tried different ...

Just bought my Treo 600.
Some things I did with my PPC that I'd like advice about how to do them
on Palm platform.
1.  Maps.  Pocket Streets sucked but had all the US available via MS

if you have a home network with three computers can you connect your T3 to
the internet using a bluetooth stick. The computers are XP

I am very new to the whole world of pda's.  I am thinking of buying a Palm
Tungsten T on clearance but I have a few questions to ask which I don't
quite understand about Palms.
1.  The specs say MP3 playback: No - Does that mean it's just not built into

I'm getting ready to buy a palm device to use with my Mac computers.
The limiting factor seems to be iSync's device list (which includes
both the Zire and Tungsten hand helds).  I need it primarily for
keeping track of a schedule, to-do items, and contacts.  So the

I no longer have my Palm Vx, but I still use the Palm Desktop software
as my PIM. I tried exporting the Datebook, Contacts, and Memo and
importing them into my Palm Desktop on the computer at work, but it
gave me the "not a valid file/format and corrupted file" error

I will buy a MP3 player within the next couple months. I am looking
for something like the Apple iPod that has a 15GB hard disk. But I am
also interested to use a MP3 player as a PDA. I am wondering whether
there is a MP3 player that can double as a PDA. I have an impression

I need to transfer text files to my Palm (OS5) from a Mac computer (OS X). And
back again after field updates.
Memo's would work but the files are too big.
Word to Go (Dataviz) would work but it's crashing with no hope of repair. Well

How to get back from Opie to PPC2002 or 2003??
I installed Linux on my iPAQ3970 because after flashing my Serial Number
disappeared. And someone told me I can restore it under Linux. Unfortunately
I don't know how to do it there and want to go back to PPC2002 or 2003.

My old friend Palm IIIc isn't charging. Can one replace the battery or is it
just time to upgrade to a Tungsten 3?
I'd do it in just a second for Docs to Go but in addition I have to buy a
new keyboard.

I'm new to this PDA thing. I've tons of ebooks I want to read on a
trip out of town. I would like a PDA that can read pdf files. I'm
confused as I couldnt find information like harddisk space. Since I
have tons of ebooks (my whole library is 2 GB), I would like to have a

I am a long time Psion user and my current one is in the last stages of its
life.  I need to move to another platform and have had experience with the
HP Jornada 720 and Active Synch.  I seem to have endless problems with that
set up and Outlook.  It begins to synch then just sits ...
