One more app that no one has mentioned is Splash Shopper. It is a good database application and I was able to transfer it along with all of my databases for it. Since I have lots of info stored there, I am happy about that!

Ah mirror, I remember it well. What a crack up! I missed this earlier.

I use ereader for all of the books that are locked up with credit card numbers. The multiformat books I re-downloaded in a format for fbreader and pdf. I found that I preferred the pdf format, but they both have their advantages. I am just grateful that I will be able to read my locked ebooks when my lifedrive (bleh!) decides to give up the ghost.

I tried DropBook for that Peanut locked shite, but it doesn't work on all books, so I torrented un-DRMed versions of the books I had bought.

The biggest problem was to stay away from books I didn't own a version of...

How did you get your databases over? I've got SplashID and wouldn't mind using it but when I tried to install the databases GVM choked

I hope you don't come back and say you just hotsync'd - that would leave me out. I haven't hotsync'd in years.

Resco Exporer 3.22 works including its ftp functions, still wish Garnet will offer a "virtual" card option to make Resco work even better!

Splash Shopper was easy because the various data bases , like my books listings, movies, etc were all in separate files in the backup files on my pc. No hot synching for me, I just transported them via usb onto my sd card. I haven't tried Splash Id yet...but now you have awakened my curiosity. I love that app but its on my other desktop pc. I will have to take a look at it later. I also have Splash Money, which I will try later too. I will report my findings!!

Darn I can't get anywhere with Splash Id!
Fortunately Splash Money is no problem and I will probably use that more on this device anyway

Has anyone had any success with Splash ID?

I was very surprised that I managed to install some Skyscape apps. Got them working could browse and search but every time you close the emulator it loses everything and you have to hotsync to restore which takes forever. I dont know if I could isolate the files which cause the problem and omit them. If you manually install files from an sd card can you select multiple files or do you have to it individually ?

gosh, so many good palm apps, it's hard to choose!

datebook5 is truly excellent, and it is why I still carry my Palm T3 with me; wife has a TX so I know she could use my 770 when Palm finally disappear off the planet.

I love many astraware games, texttwist is one of my favourites!

Handyshopper is really great - not just for shopping, but useful for any sort of resettable to-do list.

eReader, not because it's special, but because it gives access to DRM locked books. Hmm, I wonder if this would allow extraction of the text, so I could free my legitimately owned books?
