How
to do Everything with Your Palm Handheld, 1st Edition:
|
 This
guide takes the approach that handheld computers based on the
Palm operating system are so user-friendly and crash-proof that
it's useless to spend a lot of time telling you how to get it to
work.
Rather, How to Do Everything with Your Palm Handheld is
more of a taskmaster, leading you through such productivity tips
as tracking expenses, planning trips, and using the Palm as a
business productivity software suite.
Though the book is weighted heavily toward the PalmPilot, it is
targeted toward users of all devices based on the Palm OS, such
as the IBM WorkPad, the Qualcomm pdQ, and the Handspring Visor,
to which the authors devote an entire chapter. What Dave Johnson
and Rick Broida do best is explain how to get the most out of
those features you probably gave only a cursory glance to.
Most users probably create to-do lists on their Palm handhelds,
but how many of them import those lists into other applications,
such as Microsoft Word and Excel? Both programs build tables
based on to-do list data. Palm handhelds also come with an
applet called Sun Compass, which could come in handy when you're
on the road.
Given that so many people use their PalmPilots as glorified
address books, the tips Johnson and Broida supply are highly
useful. How to Do Everything with Your Palm Handheld will
show you how to make these popular devices the ultimate
productivity tools. --John Frederick Moore
