The Tungsten PDA

This afternoon, while sailing on FreewarePalm, I met by chance with a program that fills a need, though not critical, if not understandable in PalmOS: the window of "Today".

In the PocketPC, PDAs running Windows Mobile, a start page with a summary of tasks, appointments, emails without reading, and other data, which are dated the day today. When you turn on the PDA, therefore, at a glance, all important information for the day. It's a really useful feature. However, it always appears in the Palm application launcher, which is not bad, but are missing the opportunity to take the other option.

Well, there is a window on PalmOS similar, with the same features and even more, because it brings forward the events of the next few days a week. You can even set an image as the background. This is the initial window of the agenda that comes by default. Being so light that worked, giving punishment to have to give the button to see her agenda, because it forces you to have to remember, and the philosophy of a PDA is just the opposite, that you remember it to you.

The sight of the day summary of the agenda

That's why I was very pleased when I discovered AgendaReminder. It's a simple program that is solely responsible for initiating the program of the agenda to turn on the PDA, if you've passed a configurable time since it was shut down. It's free and does not occupy 10Kb. Is not what is waiting for the PalmOS desarroladore to include this option integrated by default. Now we can see an overview of the tasks of the day, just turn on the Palm morning. Genial!
