| I happened to notice some of your blog entries when I was looking on Palm Addicts. You were recently discussing Palm date calculators and travel applications. Coincidentally, we are a small developer of Palm apps and have two apps that fall into these categories. Let me start by introducing myself: I'm Justine Pratt, 1/2 of Creative Algorithms. We are a husband and wife team. We wrote Date Wheel a while back and I used it to count down when I was pregnant with my two kids. I also used it as a program manager for determining lead time (my husband originally wrote it for me, as a replacement for my plastic wheel). While it's not freeware, we've been told it has one of the best UI of the date calculators out there. FWIW. :) We also have an app, Trip Boss, that is designed to keep track and record all your trip data. We have a major upgrade coming out soon thatwill even better enhance the itinerary section, adding custom itinerary entry for common itinerary items, such as airline travel, car rentals, and hotels. We even added a meeting planning section to this--a lot of customers wanted to plan their agendas for traveling within the program. (I noticed you mentioned planning for conferences.) I recently used Trip Boss when I attended a PalmSource developer conference. |
Well, this could be my next Palm, if this rumour proves to be true. The specs of course are not known, but give me at least a 64MB Treo, decent battery life, BT 1.2, then I might be sorely tempted - especially as my SE phones ( T610 and T68i) are exhibiting some unhealthy symptoms like suddenly resetting and going bonkers from time to time. I don't even mind the external antenna though as this model is a little curvier than it's predecessor and the antenna a bit more stubby and less obvious.| You can find Dates! Ver.2.11 on the web as below. http://www.tucows.com/preview/34704 And I find a comment about Dates! on http://www.lawtechguru.com/archives/2004/01/09_great_date_calculator_for_your_palm.html that I think you found the blog already. Japanese doctor made a date calculator, but it has some calculating bug especially about month and date. |
| Please add a date calculator to the program - It would be very useful for counting number of days since last cycle of chemo and especially days since transplant. Thank you. |
I do use a date calculator myself and one of the gems is Dates (last version 2.1, freeware by one Marty Wilber and I am afraid nowhere to be found on the WWW anymore - email me if you are desperate ;) ) This wonderful program allows you to calculate the number of days or weeks from a particular date, and can work out the future date for a set number of dates or weeks. This is great for what you want - counting the number of days from the last cycle of chemo or days post-transplant. I also use it to work out a future appointment date "x" number of weeks from a particular date. There is even a Datebook button which will jump to the Datebook application (built-in or the one mapped to your Datebook button). It works in OS 5.x still as far as I can tell.
There is one more Date calculator, a freebie called DateToolz written by yours truly. Its more amateurish compared to Dates but it gets the job done, even if I say so myself ;)
The most essential app I believe is Worldmate. This is the jack-of-all-trades application for the world traveller. It has built-in world clocks so you can keep track of your local time, calculate time differences, set alarms etc. Need to look up the weather in your destination? No problem. When you sync, Worldmate updates the weather forecast. You could do that online too if you have wireless Internet access (e.g. via Wifi or GPRS). Check currency? No problem as well since Worldmate updates the rates via the Internet too. Its invaluable as a tool to calculate the equivalent in the local currency. I also find the Packing list useful to keep track of things to take along on the trip.There's lots more like International area codes. If you have the Pro version, you could even subscribe to Flight schedules but I haven't tried that.
Next, the conference itself. I usually like to organize myself way before the meeting. I use Agendus as my Calendar replacement and as you can see in this particular meeting (the 10th World Myeloma Workshop in Sydney 2005) I attended, I've already keyed in the sessions I planned to attend. The Notes field of each meeting is used for me to enter my own notes. Don't bother about trying to input notes with Graffiti or your stylus. Get a portable keyboard. It's much much faster. The PDA + portable keyboard is a much more mobile solution than a notebook which is bulkier.| Application Description: Topics include: acute & chronic renal failure, edema, hypertension, acid-base physiology, hematuria, proteinuria, rhabdomyolysis, electrolytes, urinalysis, cystic diseases, cancer, RTA, drug dosing in renal failure, cystic casease, renal drug toxicity, electrolytes, labs, kidney transplant and more much, much more... |
 Description:This software lets you search amino acids by their single or three letter code as well as by mRNA codons. |
| Question Does Epocrates work on an expansion card? Answer If you are a Palm/Windows user with Dx or Essentials, you can now store Dx on your memory card. To do this, you will need to re-download the latest version of the software from your My Account page and choose the Memory Card as the location for Dx. To do this, go to www.epocrates.com and click on My Account. Sign in if needed and then look for the download button next to DX or Essentials. When you click it you will go to a new page that allows you to choose Expanded Memory or Main Memory as the destination for DX. Follow the remaining on screen instructions to save the file to your desktop and continue with the installation as you normally would. Our server will automatically place the files on the card during the first AutoUpdate. Currently, our applications are not compatible with the Sony memory stick or memory expansion cards on a Pocket PC mobile device. |
