Here’s a auto on program that works in a slightly different way than others. I originally mentioned AutoOffExtender in my Essential app #16 posting on Always On and similar apps that override the auto off feature of Palms. At the time, AutoOffExtender didn’t have much of an interface or show [...]

Since the Treo 650 is very much a cell phone as well as a PDA, you would think that the ability to find and display the lifetimer on the Treo should be available. And, yes, you are able to find the lifetimer on the Treo.
What is a lifetimer? Well, as the name implies, it’s [...]

Here’s a program that I feel should be an “essential” application to be included in my list of essential apps mainly because I have found it quite important to be able to have, regardless of the Palm device.

If you’re like me, it always seems to be quite a scramble and frustrating when you’re pressed for time (usually at the end of a meeting or whatever) and you need to get someone’s phone number before they left.
Now, if they owned a Palm device, that could easily be done by having them “beam” [...]

During my recent quest to find more links to add to my blogroll, I found Michael Ashby’s site and blog, mashby.com.
